my advice: switch to another publish, if they cannot handle SGML/XML.

I don't think there is a magic bullet. An SGML to LaTeX transformation 
is a high-level thing entirely at odds with the philosophy of DSSSL
(and XSL FO). Of course, DSSSL (or XSLT) are good languages for
writing this transformation

My personal solution is to have TeX parse the XML file.
