Two reasons, speed and customization level. Not all DSSSL customizations are ported to XSL customizations. This is in the TODO in BUILD SYSTEM section. Speed comes from that we already have DSSSL generated files, and only need some transformations on them, and it seemd quicker to start from HTML and not back from XML. Now as the file size factor came in for the DSSSL generated HTML files, things are getting more complex, but this is not related to this talk... > > As <note role="seealso"> seems the more versatile solution, with both > > enabling us to use paras and lists, +1 for this method. > > I finished modification of DSSSL stylesheets.
