Add PassiveTeX. PassiveTeX is an XML Formatting Objects processor,
written in TeX (!). To produce high quality PS or PDF output from XML files, you first convert them to the FO standard, and then run PassiveTeX over them.

+PassiveTeX is a library of TeX macros which can be used to process
+an XML document conforming to the Formatting Objects (FO) spec.
+This provides a relatively easy mechanism to convert FO files to
+Postscript and PDF.
+
+For example, to generate a PDF file from an FO file, run
+
+ pdftex --interaction nonstopmode "&pdfxmltex" file.fo
