A couple notes on what is left, along with some hints for people who

are good with xsl but not latex.

 - Fix tables
 
   Perhaps we need to add some xml hints about the size of different
-  columns in the source files.  For example:
-  <table><columnlist><column width="20%"/><column width="80%"/></columnlist>
-  <tr><td>...

+  <table>

+  </columnspec>
+  <tr><td>1</td><td>2</td><td>3</td></tr>
