I have written two scripts, which transform Java API documentation
(works very well) and doxygen-generated documentation (nearly works)

I used them a few days ago to generate a quick book for the GConf API.
They work with a few changes -- I have some patches in my checkout of
devhelp, I'll clean them up soon.
