The German Research Net (DFN) distributes an SGML-based set of document
types (paper, report, ...) together with programs for translating
such documents into LaTeX and nroff/troff.  The structure of the
paper and report document types is very similar to the comparable
LaTeX document types.    The system is called Daphne.   If there
is any interest, I'll dig out DFN's address.
