chicken/egg problem?

no, realy, XSL tools and available documentation have improved since
then, while on the DSSSL front nothing new happened

e.g. saxon is already faster than jade when producing bightml, although
it still loses on the multipage html yet (don't know about other XSLT
processors yet)

afaik print output isn't as good as with our current setup but with
all the emerging problems (pushing TeX buffer sizes to their limit,
rendering problems like we had with '--') and with even Sebastian
Rahtz saying that the TeX backend to jade needs a complete redesing
we seem to be better of at the XSL side in the near future
