Please find my contribution for making the package list [1] human
readable. A request for help was made on the forums [2] and since I
was looking for the same thing, I thought I'd address the problem with
a solution. The XSLT is pretty simple, but I just wanted to get
something working which could then be improved on.
There are some problems with the original XML though.
"<ENDOFPACKAGES>" as a delimiter? I don't think that is a good idea.
And it would be useful to see a xsd file created so that things like
status can be standardised and validated.
Because I used XSLT 2.0 you'll need to do the transform server-side or
with a Firefox plugin like this [3]. It could be made XSLT 1.0 if you
dropped the grouping by category or rewrote the original XML to group
the packages by category in the first place.
I release this code under the standard BSD license.
