I've been working on this for some time now. We are already getting
beautiful PDFs for most latin-based languages and Russian. However, other
languages like Japanese and Greek are not that easy to implement -- but
I'm working on it. Another problem is that db2latex-xsl is not complete,
but it's enough for the manual right now and I'll get to extending it
later.

Concluding: I hope to present a usable manual soon.
