Thanks - this was what I was asking for. I understand that it isn't a good idea to bundle MakeBook or DropBook into Calibre.

Having already imposed on you for PML output, recall that =X= asked for PML input:

It isn't your job, necessarily, to make life easier for DRM circumvention, but if DRM-free eReader .pdb's are added as input to Calibre the process for makeing an ePub will be DRM-ed eReader -> PML (ereader2pml.py) -> DRM-free eReader (DropBook) -> ePub (Calibre). If Calibre supported PML input then the DropBook step could be skipped for input.
