I know it's been a while since this thread was active but I wanted to ask another question that relates quite closely to this.

I've been researching theses master formats for sometime and it does seem that TEI, OEBPS, XML, BookX could be good contenders...deciding which to use is not that easy.

Publishers such as O'Reilly use DocBook for their technical manuals, but does anyone know if there is standard format that is used for novels (fiction, non-fiction, etc)?

Thanks,

~mike
