[Bf-docboard] Special modeling techniques chapter

[Bart Veldhuizen]

Hi Landis,

if you could write it in Word or OpenOffice I could translate that to 
Docbook for you - no problem. It gets a littlebit more complicated when 
you want to add to an existing chapter, but in that case you could look 
at the existing XML and figure out how to change it, I guess :)

The reason that we use Docbook is that it allows for 
'publication-independent' content markup. This means that from one 
sourcefile, we can generate HTML, PDF, RTF, TXT and other formats. 
Docbook is much more structured than plain text or HTML and the 
documents that are generated have a very consistent and professional layout.
