Conversion of man to docbook: 
http://www.catb.org/esr/doclifter/

I have used that several times, works reliable and needs only minor tweaking 
after conversion.

Btw please use <releaseinfo>&kronometer; 2.0</releaseinfo> in your frameworks 
branch, 
quoting from kdoctools/src/template.docbook
<!--version information of Frameworks/Plasma/Applications this documentation 
is valid for.
Example:
Frameworks xx.yy for docbooks in frameworks
Plasma xx.yy for docbooks in plasma workspace
Applications xx.yy for docbooks released as Applications
$applicationname xx.yy for applications with independent release schedule 
(extragear/playground)
-->

Thanks
