It adds two things:
1) It packages all the files needed to do Docbook-based XML authoring in Emacs
as a single distributable. Previously, setting up an XML authoring
environment
entailed going around to various sites to get the components, installing
them,
and integrating them. This is not a trivial task in my experience.
2) A set of Java-based commands that apply style sheets to documents. This
includes
a command that applies the xml-to-html stylesheet for Docbook to the xml
file in the current buffer and then displays the result in your system's
default HTML browser. This allows you to display a formatted view of your
document with a single command.
