Fun with xslt...

One of my specialties at work is an xml dialect that describes how to turn documents written in another arbitrary xml dialect into another-other arbitrary xml dialect. I swear if this gets any more meta, I'm going to gain the power to alter reality around me with my text editor.

Which would be pretty cool.

I've mostly been dealing with Bugzilla's XML export format (e.g. http://bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?ctype=xml&id=1&id=2&...&id=n), hand-annotated with some extra information. But anything that isn't in XML to being with can be massaged into one-off "XML" (e.g. <value time="2009-12-22T00:00:00Z" count="5"/>.)
