Do you need a solution where a stylesheet ST1 processes S1 and S2 and
generates stylesheets SG1 and SG2, which can extract the documents D1 and D2
from M1, or do you just want a stylesheet that hard codes the logic? Coming up
with even a rudimentatry solution without seeing your schemas is more of less
impossible, so if you show us your schemas and the solution attempt you've got
so far, maybe people can offer specific solution possibilities.
