Re:  CDATA again
This is a FAQ.

You can't have nodes inside a CDATA section, you can only have character
data (hence the name).

You want to generate
	<targetGroup markup="yes">                    
		<![CDATA[		
                      <ul>
                        <li>PK Bestandskunden
                        (Postpaid+Prepaid)</li>
                        <li>Neukunden</li>
...
    ]]>
    </targetGroup>

That is exactly the same thing as

You want to generate
	<targetGroup markup="yes">                    
				
                      &lt;ul>
                        &lt;li>PK Bestandskunden
                        (Postpaid+Prepaid)&lt;/li>
                        &lt;li>Neukunden&lt;/li>
...
    
    </targetGroup>

It's just a syntactic variation just as <a x="2/> and <a x = '2' />
are syntactic variantions, that you don't directly control from XSLT.

Do you need a template mopde that writes out the character data
corresponding to the tags so 

<xsl:template match="*" mode="x">
 <xsl:text>&lt;</xsl:text>
 <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
 <xsl:text>&lt;</xsl:text>
  <xsl:apply-templates mode="x"/>
 <xsl:text>&lt;/</xsl:text>
 <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
 <xsl:text>&lt;</xsl:text>

</xsl:template>

More complete examples, handling attributes etc are in the faq or
archives of this list.
