Well, I think it is. You just have to parse the URI, find the
corresponding XML, and invoke a transformation. The result must be
cached somewhere (ok, this caching can be very complex). For the
navigation another transformation is needed, inserting some links that
are read from another central XML file.

That's it! I think it should be possible to write such a system within
a day. But why to reinvent the wheel?

Yes, of course, Cocoon and Lenya are great. Cocoon provides much more
than I need. I'm sure that my requirements can be meet with a simpler
system (described above) that does not need a 30MB installation
(Lenya).
