Making tables

Say I have the following XML fragment:

<list>
	<item>foo</item>
	<item>bar</item>
	<item>baz</item>
	...
</list>

And I want to create an XSL rule to generate a two column table of this
information (i.e. each row in the table contains two item entries) in
HTML.  Is there a way to do this without going through the formatting
objects (although columns don't seem to exist there yet either)?

Thanks much for any input.
