And here is the DocBook/XML file: http://prokoudine.info/files/f-spot-manual.xml

Only icons are missing. The rest markup seems to be okay.

As for updating, I think we could make it this way: considering not
everyone, who would like to contribute to docs, has commit access, we
could use still use wiki and right before release update XML using
wiki diffs. Theoretically we can export from mediawiki to DocBook/XML
(see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/DocBook_XML_export for reference),
but I haven't seen it working anywhere yet.
