- <p>To complete our implementation of the <resource-ref idref="XSLT"/>, we
must do the following:</p>
<ul>
- <li>Integrate the International Components for Unicode (ICU) for
number formatting and output encoding<br/><br/></li>
- <li>Complete implementation of the format-number() function and
support for the decimal-format element<br/><br/></li>
- <li>Add support for the exclude-result-prefixes
attribute<br/><br/></li>
- <li>Add support for the output encoding attribute<br/><br/></li>
<li>Add support for extension elements<br/><br/></li>
- <li>Fix namespace bugs<br/><br/></li>
- <li>Continue to run our suite of conformance tests and fix any
conformance bugs we find<br/><br/></li>
+ <li>Fix any conformance bugs we or our users find<br/><br/></li>
+ <li>Implement a more efficient mechanism for storing and navigating
DOM trees, along the lines of the &xslt4j; Document
+ Table Model (DTM)<br/><br/></li>
</ul>
- <p>The XSLT specification makes no such requirement, but we plan to
implement a more efficient mechanism for storing and
- navigating DOM trees, along the lines of the &xslt4j; Document Table
Model (DTM)</p>
