I am not sure what you are referring to. XSLTC conforms to the
XSLT 1.0 and XPath 1.0 specs. There are about 10-12 open bugs,
which you will find documented in Bugzilla. Most of these bugs
only manifest themselves is very peculiar cases.

Yes. We have a long list of companies that use XSLTC for their
internal and external portals, etc.

I suggest that you have a look at the XSLTC bugs in Bugzilla. If you
fear that any of them will cause you problems then give us some more
time; and if not, then I recomment you give it a go.
