Probably the 0.7 release.

This really depends on what the docbook stylesheets output. We will be 
supporting a subset of XHTML2, not the whole lot. There is extensive

The above thread covers much of this. I have opened an issue against 0.7 
so that we can start collecting the ideas together one 0.6 is released.
