Hi Sebastian,

Sebastian said:
In another window I am preparing some slides for a talk at XML DevCon;
I am writing them as a single XML file, and have an XSL spec to turn
them into a set of interlinked HTML pages for the talk. XSL is good
for that, yes? the right tool? But the task seems to be essentially
the same as you manipulating tens of gigabytes of Irish parliamentary
stuff. The difference is a) scale, and b) some wrapper features (like
sending email). And the scale stuff is *surely* just
implementation. If the language expresses your task nicely, your
reason for not doing it today in XSL comes down the inadequacy of
todays experimental implementations....

Didier says:
I have to do the same thing. With simple curiosity, which implementation did
you used to create multiple HTML documents form a single XML document? And
which construct did you used? I may learn a new way to do things from your
answer and this is always good to learn new ways to do things.

Didier PH Martin
