I converted mine to asciidoc already:
https://github.com/BoostGSoC14/boost.http/commit/c535bf73cab03b60b285df7e7bff62c49be99744

It'll be interesting to see you converting document to reStructuredText and
compare results/share experiences.

My experience is that it was pretty easy to convert to asciidoc, as all
DocBook semantic was there already (like warning, tip and so on blocks).
