[xsl] template matching

["james walker" <jameswalkerandy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

if i have a note elemtn that can be placed in side many different elements 
within an xml document e.g.

<main>
<sub1><note></note><note></note><note></note></sub1>
<sub2></sub2>
<sub3><note></note></sub3>
<sub4><note></note><note></note><note></note><note></note></sub4>
<sub5></sub5>
</main>

If i wanted to produce a list of notes when the note element appears i would 
do something like this:

<xsl:template match="sub1">
<ul>
<xsl:apply-templates select="note" />
</ul>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="sub3">
<ul>
<xsl:apply-templates select="note" />
</ul>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="sub4">
<ul>
<xsl:apply-templates select="note" />
</ul>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="note">
<li><xsl:value-of select="note" /></li>
</xsl:template>


Is there anyway i can reduce this code down because i have this implemented 
on a much larger scale where the note element appears within 28-30 other 
elements. Is there anyway to reproduce the output which the design above 
creates without having to write out <ul> tags within each template match?

cheers
james
