That is the identity transformation template. It processes nodes by 
copying the node and then processes all attributes followed by all child 
nodes. If you have only that template then all nodes (in the XSLT/XPath 
data model) are copied through.

As you want to change certain elements you add templates matching those 
elements and perform the intended transformation (e.g. Source -> 
Destination), then you make sure using


> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>

that attributes and child nodes are processed.
