The transforms cannot be done from .oets as they do not have the details of
the archetypes, only references and further constraints of archetypes.  In
addition, the .oet files are currently a proprietary format used by the
Ocean Template Designer since there is no finalised specification for
templates in openEHR.

Having said that, Ocean has developed an Operational Template generator that
effectively compiles the .oet and archetypes into a single constraint
definition which can be serialised to XML and be used for these kind of
transformations.  This Operational Template utilises the existing Archetype
Object Model and R1.0.1 XML schema with minor extensions based on the draft
openEHR Template specification (with minor modifications that will be
provided as implementation feedback to the specification author for
consideration).  This approach has already been used by Ocean to generate
XML Schema's for a specific template using XSLT from a compiled and
serialised Operation Template.  This resolves both problems identified
above.
