I didn't use XSLT, but I do have a perl-script making the xml-files from 
scratch. Probably our needs are different than yours, but if you like you can 
get a look at it. It has capabilities of merging several directories with 
netcdf-files into one xml-file. It should be fairly easy to make it produce 
several xml-files instead. Because of our server-topology we cannot use the 
scanning-functionality in thredds, but this should also be fairly easy to 
alter. Please email me privetely if interested since I'm not very keen on 
putting it on the web.
