+/**
+ * Provides the tools for doing the conversion of StarWriter XML to and from
+ * supported formats, through the use of an XSLT transformation.
+ *
+ * <p>It follows the {@code org.openoffice.xmerge} framework for the conversion
+ * process.</p>
+ *
+ * <p>This converter does not currently support merge.</p>
+ *
+ * <h2>XSLT Transformation</h2>
+ *
+ * <p>The converter makes use of one or more XSLT style sheets, which are used
+ * in the DocumentSerializer and DocumentDeserializer, to perform the actual
+ * translations. The location of these stylesheets is extracted from the
+ * {@link org.openoffice.xmerge.util.registry.ConverterInfo ConverterInfo} data
+ * structure, and are specified using the optional converter-XSLT-serialize and
+ * converter-XSLT-deserialize tags in a plug-ins converter.xml file. Please
+ * refer to the SDK document for more information about how to implement a
+ * Plug-in Configuration XML File for a specific plug-in.
+ * A sample OpenOffice to HTML stylesheet and HTML to OpenOffice stylesheet, has
+ * been provided as a sample implementation. The converter also makes use of an
+ * XsltPlugin.properties file, which may be edited by the user to provide
+ * MIME-TYPE to file extension mappings. This file is used by the
+ * {@link org.openoffice.xmerge.converter.xml.xslt.PluginFactoryImpl
+ * getDeviceFileExtension} method.</p>
+ *
+ * <h2>TODO list</h2>
+ *
+ * <ol>
+ * <li>Expand XSLT style sheets to support more office/HTML capabilities</li>
+ * <li>Add support for certain character codes, such as {@literal &} which
+ *     currently causes the transformer to break.</li>
+ * <li>Change the DocumentDeserializer transformer, so that the DOMResult is
+ *     serialized using the xalan serializer and create an SxwDocument from the
+ *     result</li>
+ * </ol>
+ *
+ * @see org.openoffice.xmerge.util.registry.ConverterInfo
