It will take quite a bit of time to start from the text at Project Gutenberg and work up the MobiPocket and ePub versions of the book. If Calibre were able to spit out an ePub version, even if it weren't a perfect rendition, you'd have HTML + images and a basic CSS to use as a starting point in building a more polished product.
As I said, I'm not necessarily *asking* for this function, just thinking about how useful it would be now that Calibre is able to produce a final format other than LRF.

That'll be a priority of mine, to make the books available in mobi/prc format. I know there are a number of people who like these hard-boiled/noir paperbacks as much as I do. In fact, I just assembled an Ed Lacy title in lrf and I'm now working on the mobi/prc version.
