	It's still more experimental than really useful.
	
	But there is a very good DocBook editor around, at
	http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/ (Java, free for personal use)
	
	It is as close to a WYSIWYG editor as possible.

|       I can't speak strongly for the editing case between the two, nor much at all about Teilite which I know only by reputation.
|       
|       However, I will say this: every substantive XML editing system I've evaluated or worked with has had some sort of DocBook support. If they also had Teilite support, I was unaware of it.

|       However, compare that to a similar search with openoffice and teilite: 17 hits
