One of the points raised in the last install guide meeting was the question if separate sources should be created for the various Linux distributions or if one source should be used, as is currently the case with the DocBook-based guides. I believe that the team tended towards separate sources because it wasn't clear how conditional text of the form "if SUSE then these install instructions, else if Redhat then those instructions" could be implemented in RST.

Has anybody investigated whether the built-in Sphinx extension "ifconfig" (http://sphinx-doc.org/ext/ifconfig.html) would be an adequate solution?
