Or I'm bored. The majority (8) of the 10ish formats I support I've never had a book in that format and just added it because I had to much extra time on my hands. TCR for instance I've never even seen an actual book in that format.

They will need a lot of modification to integrate with calibre. I looked into them and was never able to get them to produce useable output. I gave up on Plucker when their tools couldn't produce a plucker file readable by the five different readers I tried. That and reading the spec made my head hurt from how over engineered it is.
