I know that rbmake (hosted on sourceforge) can generate a Rocket eBook .rb ebook directly (predecessor to the .imp format, but not similar at all). This bypassed the need to use the Rocket/eBook Librarian software by Gemstar.

Since the .imp format has very little official documentation, replacing it's sole generating software (eBook Publisher) will be a challenge to say the least...
