Nik,

I am already working on getting this drawn.  What would be the best
format to use for it anyways?  I myself love to use TGif for schematic
drawings, but I don't know what's the best for the DocBook usage.

Eivind had the idea that you prefer something like PS for printing and
gif/jp[e]g for webpages.  Is this with the 3.1 version of DocBook
doable?  AFAIK not.
