Distributed? Not really. It can't be done in parts, and there's only two
sizes (US and A4). It also really only needs to be done once per release
(although I suppose it would be nice to do for point releases.)

It took about two days each (run serially) on a 2xOpteron 246 using debian
unstable's:

openjade: 1.3.2-8
opensp: 1.5.1/0-4
docbook-dsssl: 1.79-3
