    Groovy Markup isn't as useful as XSLT.

    I use XSLT to generate my build files. It's like running
    configure, except it does a lot less work, since there are far
    fewer platform issues.

    I use XSLT 2.0, and Saxon 8.2, to generate JUnit tests.

    I can give you a login to my repository and let you checkout a
    project. Contact me off-list.
