I just read on slashdot, that M$ published the XML Schema for their new Office 2003 Suite (mostly Word related) including documentation:
http://isb.oio.dk/info/news/wordml+published.htm
According to http://rep.oio.dk/Microsoft.com/officeschemas/LegalNotice.htm they are even redistributable without fee, but I don't know, if that's relevant for us.
I experimented a bit with with it and added a hello world example for Word 2003 ML (see attachments for the results).
I don't know if it's worth adding it to CVS, but if you like, feel free to do so ;-)
Enjoy!

<samples name="Hello, World!">
<group name="Back">
<sample name="Back" href="../">
Back to the samples home page.
</sample>
</group>
<group name="About">
<note>All examples on this page have been created using a single data source,
hello.xml file.
</note>
<sample name="XML" href="hello.xml">
Hello world XML document.
</sample>
</group>
<group name="Multichannel Hello World!">
<sample name="HTML" href="hello.html">
This page shows how a simple XML page can be presented in HTML.
</sample>
<sample name="XHTML" href="hello.xhtml">
This is the same page as above, but rendered in XHTML (which is the
well-formed XML version of HTML). Note that both the page and the
stylesheet used to transform it didn't change from the previous
example, Cocoon does everything for you by setting a different serializer.
</sample>
<sample name="WML" href="hello.wml">
By changing the stylesheet, it's possible to render the same content
for consumption on different devices. Here, for example, it's rendered
in WML (Wireless Markup Language) which is the markup language used
in WAP-enabled agents (such as PDA or cell phones).
</sample>
<sample name="CHTML" href="hello.chtml">
Or, as CHTML (Compact HTML), which is used by i-Mode compatible cell phones.
</sample>
<sample name="SVG" href="hello.svg">
Given the power of XSLT and the fact that many presentation languages are
based on the XML syntax, it is possible to generate even vector graphics
from your content. Here is an example that renders to SVG (Scalable Vector
Graphics). (You need an SVG plugin, or an SVG-capable browser to see this.)
</sample>
<sample name="Plain Text" href="hello.txt">
Sometimes you don't need to be very fancy, so here is a plain text
version of your content.
</sample>
<sample name="VRML" href="hello.wrl">
But sometimes you need to be fancy to impress people, so here is a 3D
version of your content (you need a VRML plugin in your browser to visualize
this).
</sample>
<sample name="VoiceML" href="hello.vml">
Or sometimes you don't even have a display in front of you, so you want to
hear your content, so here is a VoiceML representation of your content (you
need a VoiceML-capable agent to hear this).
</sample>
<sample name="Zip archive" href="hello.zip">
Or you might want your information nicely packaged as a zip file.
</sample>
