This is the Debian Installer documentation for end users. It is in
Docbook XML format, which is a standard for documentation. The advantages include
more precise tagging, figure and table support, and a very strongly
supported toolchain. There is a fairly brief cheatsheet.xml here which
will probably tell you all you need to know, especially if you've
worked with debiandoc before. The Definitive Guide to DocBook by Norm
Walsh is indispensable for figuring out why your tags don't work the
way you think they should:

All help is welcome! Send suggestions to the debian-boot list. Patches
can be submitted against the package installation-guide.

Patches should normally be submitted against the 'master' branch of
the manual, so they will be included in the next upload.
However there are some cases where it is appropriate to update the
stable release also: such patches should be made against the branch
for the relevant stable release codename.
