My thoughts are a bit scattered, but here's what I've got at the moment.
I'm working on putting together a web page but it's a bit funky yet.  It's
at, http://www.akutan.org.  I'll just include all the links and stuff here
for you as well.

The book to which I referred, Program Generators with Java and XML, was
written by craig cleaveland, http://www.craigc.com.  He's got some stuff on
his site.

Two tools that generate EJBs from XML files are ejbwizard,
http://www.mousetech.com/EJBWizard.html and Percolator,
http://www.percolator.org.

In terms of template engines, Rickard Oberg wrote one which you can download
from http://www.dreambean.com.

I don't have any comparison information between Rickard's template stuff and
Craig's, but off the top of my head Craig's looks superior because he's
actually generating Java code from the templates whereas Rickard is
interpreting the templates.  That means Craig's stuff allows you to insert
Java code into your templates if the language doesn't do what you need.

Cheers

I am also interested in the topic of template engines, esp. those driven
by
XML models. Can you provide links to any of these "opensource"
offerings?

thanks,
