Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: Outline for a Windows Tool Chain?

I'm trying to get started with DocBook on Windows XP.  
I've decided that I should probably use XML DocBook, but I am also
looking for the easiest way to get started.  

If there was an install program that installed the needed tools, I would use that.

I've been using Markus Hoenicka's instructions, but I have already
set up some tools (Java 1.4, CygWin and Emacs) for my other development.
This seems to confound matters.  

All of the different tools that are listed in Markus's directions seem to
be getting in my way.

The current version of Cygwin seems to have XSLTproc as an optional
component, so that seems to work ok.

I would like to take fo to pdf or LaTeX.  What is the simplest way to do this
(simple meaning the easiest tools to install on windows).

I seem to be fighting installation and configuration. 
Does anyone have any sugestions.
