Because I don't yet understand all of the features/capabilities that DSSSL 
provides. For the beginner, DSSSL is rather a daunting prospect. Decent 
documentation is hard to find. I have a copy of the browsable version of the 
standard but even this is not trivial to navigate (no index). The couple of 
tutorials I have read just don't go far enough. All I know (not much) has been 
learnt from reading other peoples style sheets and this mailing list.

Anyway, it's more exciting when you discover things yourself :-)

Now I've got your attention, how about this index creation nightmare? I guess 
we're all waiting for James to fill in some of the gaps in Jade.

regards,

Mark
