ContentManagementVsDocumentManagement are tools for storing and managing collections of content -- entire documents and/or document components or fragments ("modular" content that can be combined and published together in some form).
Borges, described on the Mandrake Linux site as a document management system, is an open-source system that includes integrated off-the-shelf support for managing DocBook content as "modules" (stored as external entities in a filesystem), and controlling the publication of that content. It is specifically designed to meet the needs of document authoring groups who need to manage a large amount of content that requires frequent revision and that needs to be maintained in multiple languages.
Siberlogic Sibersafe XML, described on the Siberlogic site as a content management system, is a commercial system that includes specific integrated off-the-shelf support for storing, managing, and publishing DocBook content. The Structural Independence and Knowledge Base sections of a white paper on the system outline custom support that the system provides for creating "knowledge bases" and online help based on DocBook content.
DocBook Wiki allows users to display and edit DocBook documents online in a wiki. From the Sourceforge summary: "DocBook Wiki is a web application that is used to display and to edit online DocBook documents. It displays the documents directly from the DocBook(XML) format. It also supports several modes of editing (text, xml, latex, texi, etc.)." It's GPLed.
Does anyone had any experience with this? It sounds promising....
PyWikiServer From the Sourceforge site: "PyWikiServer is a WikiWiki web server written entirely in Python. Data files are encoded using docbook XML. It does not need neither a Web Server nor any conversion/stylesheet tool." (just found, didn't try it yet).
