The font size is way too small!
Well, in every browser I know (on Linux), you can setup your preferred sitze for minimum and/or medium font size.
As long as newsgroups are not substantially worse than the three other communication forms, you should list them.
You did not mention what is the advantage of newsgroups over the mailing lists, therefore I am leaving them out.
The question is how the DocBook documents created by Drupal look.
That should be tested, of course.
You can also export Word documents as HTML but as far as I know this is not advisable.
If the html is desired output, no need for a complex thing as Docbook.
The main advantage of DocBook is that it uses truely logical markup. Logical markup is something we should keep under all circumstances.
DocBook is much richer markup language than HTML, so what is the need to author in a complicated markup when much simpler tools can do the job?
By the way, is Drupal Free/Open Source Software?
From the Gentoo ebuild description:
Drupal is a PHP-based open-source platform and content management system for building dynamic web sites offering a broad range of features and services; including user administration, publishing workflow, discussion capabilities, news aggregation, metadata functionalities using controlled vocabularies and XML publishing for content sharing purposes. Equipped with a powerful blend of features and configurability, Drupal can support a diverse range of web projects ranging from personal weblogs to large community-driven sites.
