>when this year is the W3  xslt 2.0 rec anticipated?

It's probably best to watch its progress on the W3C's "TR Page":
http://www.w3.org/TR/
Right now, you'll find the components under "Working Drafts in
development". What components?
XSLT 2.0
XPath 2.0
XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Functions & Operators
XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model
XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Formal Semantics
(Other components, such as Schema Part 2 for the datatypes, have
already reached Rec status.)

Yes, if you want to do your own CVS extract and build.
