I don't know if I still need to draw your attention to LEO 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/leo). The DTD of Leo output files is
naturally not 1:1 with xmLP, but things like lp:usage attributes can
be generated automatically.

Of course, everyone has their own idea of what LP has to look like,
but after using Leo for a couple of weeks my impression is that of a 
very flexible tool that can be geared towards many structures, including
at least an important subset of the xmLP grammar.
