Personally, i'm grateful that it hasn't. Apart from Ingo's 
thorough critique of DocBook:

i doubt i'd have had as much enthusiasm for creating the man page 
ports of s6-related documentation if i'd had to use DocBook, 
rather than being able to use mdoc(7). In fact i probably wouldn't 
have done them at all.
