Sadly, I read that entire discussion you linked to. I did not find a single reference to kepub, or renaming an .epub to .kepub.epub.

I take it that you are aware of the multiple ePub versions and that many items using newer epub attributes will requite a properly created .kepub.epub since the RMSDK version does not support much of the ePub3 specification.

And perhaps reading through the ePub specs noting the difference between items that labelled as must and items that are labelled as should or optional might help a bit.
