The answer is more simple than you might think - the file I used 
as "template" was using 1.1 and I did not even think about changing 
it ;-)

To make the story short: This project works as needed, and "never change 
a running system" - especially if XSLT is involved ;-)

However, I will accept patches *g*

XSLT and fun? I usually get headache. OK, it wasn't a big problem with 
this small file, but I had "some" bad experience with the XLS files for 
the german SUSE Linux FAQ...

    He must have been working on something else at this time ;-)
