Interesting methodology! If I'm reading this right, it would be trivial to replace at least the Dropbox step with any given web server, yes? I mean, the Dropbox step does not add anything to your setup; it's just the delivery platform, correct?
Thanks for an interesting article.
Great point! I guess the "problem" with markdown-style formats would be images and other includes;; where do they get neatly stored so that they are available when the markdown text is rendered by the e-reader? But if there are no includes, there is no problem and md or rst or whatever seems like a great option.
The tool chain for open source ebook production is all I know, so I never really thought of it as article potential. Between pandoc, docbook and various XML processors, latex, and even Libre Office, that just might be an article worth writing!
