I answered this one separately. I don't recommend doing a full XSL 
transformation as we don't need all the data in the file. Cherry picking with 
XPath will be sufficient. This is what we do with the libvirt format.

What Perl library would you use for the XSL transforms?  Adding new
dependencies can be problematic (I'm thinking from a RHEL point of
