The best documentation of transformation I've found has been the unit tests
for it:
http://code.google.com/p/wave-protocol/source/browse/test/org/waveprotocol/wave/model/document/operation/algorithm/DocOpTransformerTest.java?repo=io2010
That doesn't give you a sample implementation for transformation, but it
does spec out the function pretty thoroughly.
