Oops, resending to the lists with my subscribed address ....
Yes there is good stuff in the old Guide. I am mining it for all I can to
make sure that nothing in it gets left out, but I just got started and I'm
not done yet. Or perhaps the more advanced stuff in the old Guide won't
easily fit into my "minimalist" Guide; if so it can be accomodated
separately. Either way, I don't want to leave anything out.

Yes I thought so too. DocBook gives a lot of flexibility.
