But you could use the exslt date and time module > http://www.exslt.org/date/index.html The parse-date [1] function helps but format-date [2] (supported by Xalan) doesn't. As [3] implements parse-date in XSLT, I'll use it. At the same time, it makes sense to make date-related extensions available to other components of Forrest as well, so where do you think is best for hosting these libraries. For now, I put mine in ${PLUGIN_HOME}/lib. Should you think there's a better location for them, let me know.
