This is a very good idea!

Could you also update the following files to use/install 'asciidoctor'
instead of 'asciidoc'?

- test/others/bers/Makefile
- scripts/travis/travis-tests
- scripts/nmk/Documentation/Makefile
- scripts/build/Dockerfile.centos
- scripts/build/Dockerfile.alpine
- scripts/build/Dockerfile.fedora.tmpl

Thanks,
Radostin
