If you're trying to express a DTD-constrained lisp grammar in XML,
that's probably the approach to take.
SGML, by virtue of its configurable concrete syntax, lets you get
a bit closer to the original lisp syntax.
I would never recommend that anybody actually use this for anything,
but you can find a toy example of lisp-in-SGML at:

Enjoy,
