Hi,

sry, looks like my previous mail accidentally went off list.

I extracted the code and put it into a gist:

Depending on saxonb and nodejs for (default) tests seems wrong though.
Replacing javascript with something else (perl, perhaps even bash)
should be "easy", but getting rid of saxonb is probably hard; parsing
xml is no fun :)

Also the test should use the current
http://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xml, but
in automated build environments you often have no internet connection
available.

I used the same/similar code to generate (parts of) these files:
