Nice hint, thanks @mrchristian! I had a look at their business model. Looks like one has to do it like that to earn money from such a service. I'd prefer to go on open source first and see what develops from that. But as they have a technical single source publishing approach, too, we can learn from that.

I assumed they were 100% open-source, I see the use Prince for PDFs which is not FOSS - thats understandable if you need its features. This is there repo https://github.com/electricbookworks/electric-book - I'll ask around.

Ah, thanks for pointing that out, hadn't found something like "Fork me on GitHub" or the like.

I also prefer it when people are very clear and up front about FOSS approach. Its a little burried
