Aaron, et al:
About two years, I started a little daily news wire for our Web site and began capturing the content in an XML database, using the News Industry Text Format. Later, we extracted the content into a weekly newsletter, and began syndicating the content with RSS 1.0. We now have the daily news wire, two editions of the newsletter, two versions of the syndicated content, and a daily edition formatted for handheld devices.
All of this publishing activity is made possible by using XML (which, by the way, we test for well-formedness each day) that we do on a shoestring. Without XML and XSLT stylesheets we could not even dream of providing this service to our community. If that's not 'solving real problems' to use your words, I don't know what is.
