If you want to collaborate on the PsychoPath/XSLT 2.0 project, I'm willing to host the code on the Bilrost github site. This would at least give it a place to reside publicly until it can be determined where it will eventually reside.
https://github.com/organizations/bilrost Please let me know if either of the GSoC people are interested.
