Hello,

I run through this need, and I'm planning to do sooner or later a XSL
stylesheet for this need (DocBook #.X or 4.X XML -> LaTeX 2e)
Using XSL here seems to be the most portable and extensible solution,
compared to implementing such a converter with traditional programming
languages. (for SGML, you might have to use DSSSL (?))
If people are interested, please let us know and let's start a project
(eg. in Sourceforge or so) for such XML stylesheets.
BR,
