Jochen,

I forgot something in my previous example (aasuming your docbook element 
is book):

<xsl:template match="book">
  <appendix>
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </appendix>
</xsl:template>


And ofcourse, you have to create templates for the other DocBook elements, 
you are using.

One general rule in all transformation: Use xsl:apply-templates as much as 
possible, it will simplifies your style sheet tremedously, and is a very 
effecient tool.
