I find it funny that people think of Markdown / AsciiDoc / whatever
plus static site generators as modern or futuristic. Hand-code markup
and then compile it? What will they think of next!
Paligo is my idea of what the next generation should look like: SaaS,
browser client, DocBook source, GUI editor, built-in CMS for
versioning, topic reuse, translation, and multiple language support,
integrated review and approval workflow management, integrated tech
support so they can work directly with my docs to fix things, CMS
plugin for Oxygen so you can do things not directly supported by
Paligo.
