Hi everyone,

What's the current status on this proposal to convert all our DocBook
source to AsciiDoc?

        https://wiki.netbsd.org/projects/project/convert-docs-to-asciidoc/

In case we're still interested in doing this, I just wanted to let
everyone know that I'm throwing my hat into the ring.

I've become intimately familiar with AsciiDoc over the years, and I've
even been making my own little publishing toolchain based on it as I
write my novel. That's why I feel confident I can take the project on
myself.

I've started working on a game plan detailing how we could achieve the
goals of the project proposal. I'll be sure share it when I'm done.

For now, I just wanted to alert everyone:

- it can be done
- I can do it
- I endorse the idea that AsciiDoc is the best choice for NetBSD's
   htdocs

What do we think?

Charlotte
