SDML or Vaxdocuments to docbook?

[Björn Lundin <bnl@tiscali.se>]

Hello!
I have a number of technical manuals written in Vaxdocuments, or
SDML (not SGML). It is
a tagged format, And I do have tex-versions, produced
from then sdml (which all have the extension .elem)
Does anyone know af a way to convert them to Docbook-xml?

Here's a small sample of the SDML
