Why not stick with the Apache tradition of coining names that start with
an X and is hard to pronounce in English? Is 'Xiesel' hard enough?
It starts with X.
It rhymes with Diesel, so you can talk about the 'Xiesel engine' in an
upcoming FOP release.
It has the letters 'X', 'S', 'L' in it, and 'XSL' is the official name
of the spec FOP is supposed to implement.
