Output to ePub format
Hi all,
It looks like Apache FOP does not yet support ePub [1] as a target output format [2]. Does anyone know if this format could even be a possibility?
If it is what are peoples general interest in this format? If there is enough interest could it maybe be considered to at least go on the Wish List [3]?
Thanks

I thought ePub was just straight XML (okay XHTML) and a zip archive and not something on the lines of PDF which requires a tool such as FOP. So all you would require is a XSLT and appropriate rules to create ePub and then zip it. Am I wrong on what I just read at the Wikipedia link?
