Hi Ron and all

An annotation to your list of links:

Get Free XML Tools (at least that what the site claims, I didn't
investigate thoroughly.)
http://www.garshol.priv.no/download/xmltools/

You make Lars Garshol sound rather like a marketeer. He's a great
source of information (try searching for his name on Usenet, by way
of deja.com), and is doing a thesis on electronic publishing
[1]. He has also written a number of tools for XML processing in
Python [2], which are free to use and learn from. These and a number
of XML tutorials are available for download at [3].
