Anyways I have a good idea: I would like to write a guide "Introduction to Linux Command-Line" in a cross-distro manner, but with distro-specific plugins. A Slackware book might be modified. With SUSE specifics added.
But how to implement the very new concept of plug-innable documentaion is still an open question. Also how will other people value that ?
Well, maybe you should have a look at the novdoc project. We already do something like plugins in documentation, it is called profiling there. For example, we use attributes like arch="amd64" as attribute to a tag and thus select a part of the text only for this architecture. Have a look at http://forgeftp.novell.com//novdoc/susemakedoc.pdf to find out how this all works.
