We have some very light XML creation needs and we're considering Word
2003 to allow authors and copyeditors to work in a familiar
environment while also making sure we can quickly get a document into
XML as we need it.  We'd actually be using this over something like
XMetaL.

The documents will be simple: paragraphs, headings, bold/italic,
lists, simple tables, an image or two.  The approach will be simple as
well (I hope): WordML -> XSL -> Our XML -> repository.

Are there any serious "gotchas" lurking with Word 2003 and WordML? 
I've heard it doesn't live up to the claim of letting the user define
and edit against their own schema very well, but that's not a problem
for us right now.

Thanks!
