The missing component for a complete conversion on my work desktop computer for work is a scriptable publishing program.

I use Quark now, with Xdata import plug-in.

Scribus is probably workable if I was proficient in Python.

Next years project.

InDesign on OS X. Sweeeet. You can use AppleScript and JavaScript, both quite easy to learn. If you have a generated XML source it can automatically build pages based on it.
