Once again I strongly agree with Jon. I'm not a fan of Velocity, as a
language, and more oriented towards the XSLT approach, but again, right now
I see no other viable and working alternative to Anakia, and so, until
someone doesn't give me a working and viable alternative, that's what I'm
going to vote for.

A big +1 on Anakia, on using its DTDs and Velocity based stylesheet... (And
big thanks to Jon for making that tool available).
