templates matches ... ?

<xsl:template match="xml.fre.FREKernelKernel.FREGeneralDocument">
   .... a lot of lines in here ....
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="xml.fre.FREKernelKernel.FREDocument">
   .... exactly the same as above..... a.lot of lines in here ....
</xsl:template>

I can't imagine that this is the way it should be written ?
Could somebody please help me out ?

Thanks in advance,
Fred
