I did some xml/xslt stuff a few years ago where we had a bunch of  
data that we wanted in various formats: text, html, PDF, XML, comma  
and what we ended up doing was using an xslt transform on demand to  
transform the data into what ever format was asked for. The  
Stylesheets are not that hard to write if you have a basic knowledge  
of XML. That sort of approach would be my _first_ idea. It makes  
updating documentation much easier because all you have to do is  
update one xml file. The style sheet will take care of the formatting  
and transformation. This could be wrapped into a build time option or  
just generated and put on the CMake website like they do for the VTK  
docs.
