I found a note on the net that confirms that too.

I agree, a good autocompletion text editor would be enough.

It was not the plan to convert everything into docBook anytime soon
anyway. At least not without further testing. Sincere and thourough
testing would take up a few months in time anyway so I wouldn't count on
it coming before 2006/2007.
Focussing on timtaw is the right thing to do now. Any idea when it will
be released?
