I *strongly* reccomend getting an account on vrici (one of my shell
servers) rather than trying to set it up yourself; it's just a bear
to get working properly.  Come find me on IRC and I can hook you up.

*Exactly* that.  Exactly what you said, without alteration.  The
only clarification I'd make is importance: PDF > HTML > everything
else.  Oh, and that the PDF needs to be something we can send to a
printer to make a book out of, so (in particular) cross references
need to be page number based (which is why we can't just print the
HTML, or anything converted from it; I haven't found anything that
produces page number xrefs from html, much as I'd *LOVE* to solve
the whole thing that way).
