Yes, jade and friends will work. But Fop is quickly catching up to the
dsssl abilities and can already do some things much cleaner (title
pages, headers and footers).
Anyway, XML or SGML doesn't really matter. There are a number of
enhancements I'd like to make to the doc process which won't be affected
either way. Auto-generated example output, and others to help things
stay in sync.
