Nope, sorry. I suggest using RestructuredText for consistency with the first document, but that's optional.
I'm know this is a little off topic but I'm really curious as to why you chose RsT rather than quickbook for making this document.
Lots of reasons: easier installation, I happen to know it really well since we wrote C++TMP in it, more sensible parsing rules, I have complete and working emacs syntax coloring (makes a huge difference), shorter toolchain, a great path to PDFs (please don't say "FOP").
I've been looking at what's involved in converting the serialization documentation but I'm always wary of new stuff. I'm curious what the advantages/disadvantages are and what the experience has been in creating pdf files from docbook.
