   That is *great* stuff (though doing it with something like Cocoon is 
a lot cleaner & faster) but it seemed to me that content management was 
more the goal.

   For the QYXie application documentation, we're maintaining our 
textual content in XML and generating the application's help content, 
the PDF docs, and the online documentation from the same source 
material.  No more out-of-sync documentation.  Very, very powerful 
stuff.
