I think the Perl script is general enough to convert other stylesheets, but not general enough to convert all stylesheets. 8^)

I didn't try to do slides because the special slides elements are not in the DocBook 5 namespace. Converting that stylesheet would put them in that namespace. While you could work with slides documents in that namespace, such usage is not official and not portable.

The Perl script is in the DocBook SourceForge SVN repository if you want to try it out:

/trunk/releasetools/makedb5xsl

Subject: [docbook-apps] Docbook 5.0 stylesheets


In the readme for docbook5-xsl-1.72.0 the section on 'How these stylesheets were produced' says
Each xsl file was processed with a Perl script

Do you think the script is general enough to convert another stylesheet,
like for example slides, and if so is it available  ?
