CHM is not exactly opensource. Microsoft successfully sued TomTom for using FAT32 formatting in it's GPS systems without paying any royalties to Microsoft. That's the old (Gates, Balmer) Microsoft, but still it's a proprietary technology by a company with a history of using litigation on technologies just to shut people down. I don't see Crosswire as being a target by microsoft, but sometimes people with intent to harm license technology just to make it something to rattle... I'd feel a lot more comfortable using a known-opensource technology. It would make production easy if it was supported.
