RSS transform

[hawat.thufir]

Google has an RSS feed of the most recent 15 messages of this group.
Arbitrarily, I saved that XML file. I also save the RSS feed for the
NYTimes home page and an RSS feed from Amazon.

Relaxer will generate an XSD file but I'm not sure what to do with that.
What I'd like to do is to do an identity transform as described in the
tutorial introduction
<http://www.relaxer.org/doc/tutorial/tutorial_s1.html>:
In addition, Relaxer can generate:

* Relax Core, XML Schema, and RELAX NG schemas based on XML instances
* DTDs based on Relax Core and RELAX NG schemas
* XSLT stylesheets (identity transforms) based on instances
I'm just mucking about here, and am just looking for a simple result. I'd
like to use relaxer to do this but can't figure out how to do an identity
transform such that the result is for all intents and purposes exactly
what was transformed.

If I can get an identity transform for one of these RSS feeds that'd give
me a jumping off point to muck around, but right now I'm feeling a bit
stuck with how to "do" XSLT. (I've got Xalon up and running, but nothing
to run through it.)
