> 2) Slow Performance (relative to Saxon) I don't think Xalan is slower, as compared to Saxon or any other XSLT engine, if you are working in XSLT 1.0 mode. Xalan also provides, XSLTC (ref, http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/xsltc_usage.html) which allows us to compile XSLT stylesheets into Java code, which is faster than XSLT interpretive processor. > 3) Not actively enhanced/developed Do we need any XSLT 1.0 enhancements in Xalan? I think, Xalan is a pretty stable product and is a great XSLT 1.0 processor. If you are working in Java environment, then Xalan plus Java extensions provides great extensibility, to the standard XSLT 1.0 language. Moreover, Xalan has quite a lot of built in extensions as well. PS: I am talking about Xalan-J at the moment :) -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: xalan-dev-unsubscr...@xml.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: xalan-dev-h...@xml.apache.org
