This program is to convert odf (open document format) to xhtml. It might 
be a good starting point for what you want to do.
http://books.evc-cit.info/odf_utils/ruby_to_xhtml.html

And this project
http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/
is able to output to odf.

P.S. OpenOffice 2 and later uses odf as its default file format.
