I beleive that O'Reilly Media has used ASCIIDoc[0] as their preferred internal format for quite a few years. Formulas are supported through ASCIIMthML[1].
More recently, they seem to have transitioned to HTMLBook[2] as a preferred source format for systems like Atlas[3].
[0] ASCIIDoc is basically a Markdown-like (or ReStructuredText-like) format that is feature-equivalent to DocBook XML: http://asciidoc.org/
