joshleitzel··on Raw Thought: The Weblog of Aaron Swartz in Markdown, PDF, and ePub
Thanks for pointing me to that! I used it to convert the ePub to Mobi and added it to the repo.

I added a Mobi version!

I actually didn't "build" the converters, I used the excellent Pandoc tool to do it for me. (Even used them to do the HTML-Markdown conversion.)

You're right! I'll try to add that today. Thanks.

Thanks! I've went ahead and uploaded the generating scripts (all the *.rbs at the root level). They're a bit messy b/c I was tweaking them to deal with various idiosyncrasies, but I'll hopefully get time to clean them up this week.

Me too! It was something I was actually thinking about before doing this project, so I hope to be able to port this to a more general solution in the near future.

Thanks, I'll be sure to let them know!

I haven't looked into using it, but I will! Want to improve the generation process if I can. I went ahead and pushed all the scripts I used, but they're a tad messy right now (was tweaking them); hope to clean them up soon.
