Not sure what this means.  We create specs in XML using the XMLspec DTD and
XSLT stylesheets and automatically generate the HTML (and diffs).  We make
both the XML and HTML available when we publish.  See
https://www.w3.org/XML/Group/Core#useful-info

See the previous answer for the XSLT used by the published XML.  The
(auto-generated) published HTML uses the standard W3C ones, e.g.,
http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/TR/W3C-CR.css with perhaps a few overriding
CSS styles.

They work just fine, and have for years.

Nothing.

Our specs rarely have particularly tricky parts.

We don't have a lot of tricky tables.

No comment.

What's most important to us is to be able to continue to create our specs
using the XMLspec DTD and publish both the XML and auto-generated HTML.  We
consider the XML the authoritative version.
