GuideXML would not be an appropriate format in any case. GuideXML is too=20 bloated with presentation items to be of use for such a purpose. While=20 one could argue for an xml source version, it would certainly not be=20 guidexml. This is also not necessary as it is possible to easilly apply=20 double transformations by first transforming a file into guidexml and=20 then into html. Look at the herds.xml file or projectxml for an example=20 of this.
