    <question>
     What is an Aggregator?
    </question>
    <answer>
    <p>
  An aggregator produces XML content. It is composed of one or more parts, each of 
which defined by an XML source. During pipeline processing, all parts of an aggregator 
are merged.
  The name of the parent element which contains the merged XML content from each part 
is defined by the value of the map:aggregate's attribute called element.
  </p>
      <p>
  In the example below,the XML content of pipelines matching <code>book-*.xml</code> 
and <code>body-*.xml</code> are aggregated, having a root element called site.
      </p>
      <source><![CDATA[
  <map:match pattern="*.html">
   <map:aggregate element="site">
    <map:part src="cocoon:/book-{1}.xml"/>
    <map:part src="cocoon:/body-{1}.xml"/>
   </map:aggregate>
   ...
      ]]></source>
      <p>
       The aggregated XML content could look like this:
      </p>
      <source><![CDATA[
  <site>
   <menu>
    <!-- content of book XML --> 
    ...
   </menu>
   <document>
    <!-- content of body XML -->
    ...
   </document>
  </site>
      ]]></source>
