Update on roundtrip: wordml to docbook

Hi there,

  I posted a while back a couples of issues with roundtrip
doing a
wordml to docbook conversion. Ref:

  http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-a
pps/200701/msg00244.html

  Steve Ball mentioned he is working on the 'next gen' of
roundtrip.
Is there any update on that work ? BTW is it going to move
to XSLT 2.0
(simple curiosity) ?

  As a side note is there anyone else trying to convert a
'human
written' document into a 'machine' readable document ? I
have done
very little progress for extracting some info (mostly
<informaltable/>):

from

  http://gdcm.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gdcm/Sandb
ox/07_03pu.xml

into

http://
gdcm.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/gdcm/trunk/Source/Informatio
nObjectDefinition/ModuleAttributes.xml

  Should I give up on docbook and switch to ODF (micro$oft
has now a
full converter from doc to odf) ? Are there more tools
digesting ODF
than docbook ?

Thanks for comments,
