Hi Andre,

I looked into using XSLT a couple of years ago to do XML -> XHTML 
transformations for Hemingway, and found the whole thing alarmingly 
slow, not to mention extremeley difficult to program and debug. Much 
faster to do it in PHP or ASP or even [probably] Transcript.

Perhaps things have changed.
