what about making it configurable?


Not if the user has to configure it.


I didn't mean configurable by the user ;-)



I think we need to get to the place where installing XSLT-based extensions (import/export solutions for example) needs to be as easy as the extension system is in Firefox. That presupposes that users don't have to think about "XSLT", much less the processor they are using.


I think the "packaging" goes into this direction, but yes it could be improved a lot


XSLT 2.0 is a huge advance over XSLT 1.0, and I really don't think there is any area (performance, conformance, stablity, etc.) in which Xalan-J is superior to Saxon even in 1.0.


there will always be something "better" and it will never be back and white only


Perhaps there would be a way to have a simple config file for these sorts of plug-ins where, if there was a genuine need to use an alternate processor, a developer could specify that.


that's what I meant or also the usecase of an "integrator" which after re-configuration deploys it.
