Sorry for the delay; I was traveling for most of January, and it's taken me 
a little while to recollect myself. (-:

The training package is currently available at <URL: 
http://crism.maden.org/consulting/pub/xmlapps/dbtrain.zip >; it will 
probably move when I get around to integrating it into the site.  It is 
entirely undocumented right now.

That zip includes:

The DTD has a <class> element which should be used as the root.  Each 
<unit> can have <slide>s at the start; slides.xsl will create HTML slides 
from them (with slides.css and left and right.gif).  The files.xsl 
stylesheet will extract any <programlisting> with a filename attribute for 
use as sample files with the class.  Finally, handout.xsl will generate PDF 
output for distribution to the class.

The files.xsl and slides.xsl stylesheets use the XSLT 1.1 draft with SAXON 
to do separate file output; this could be tweaked for other 
processors.  The handout.xsl stylesheet uses the pre-REC version of XSL for 
use with older FOP; that would need to be changed for the most recent 
version, as well.

Someday I'll document all of this (really - it's for work).
