Ah, general public, we hope to fix that.  For daisy writing, you  
might want to look at dbtmaker.  I'm not sure where to get it though.

I would love DAISY but that really isn't a viable format for the general
public.  I asked around here to get ideas but I'm mainly thinking about
packages built for Slackware installs and shared with the general Linux
using public.  Plus I don't have a good quick method of rendoring DAISY
books in Linux.  And I can't even get listen-up to work with the stuff I
author with Eclipse writer so my daisy efforts under linux are pretty
much dead for the time being.
