Hi Henry, First,Thank you for your reply!
You suggest me to make the XSLT 2.0-related contributions gradually, function by function, that would make it easier to discuss, evaluate and integrate those contributions. Yeah, i am just doing it,these days,i was coding with Xalan, i want to finish some XPath 2.0 functions which do not use sequences and schema-type first,because these functions are very practical and compatible with XPath 1.0. In fact, i have finish some functions and test them to confirm them works well (for example some string functions just like ends-with,upper-case etc). I want to commit these codes and my future codes to Xalan,but i do not know how to start it ? If i want to commit my codes to Xalan,who should i get in touch with ? You are a Xalan committer, it is so good, can you give me some instruction about how to become a Xalan committer ? Additional, I want to hold part jobs of implementing XSLT 2.0 for Xalan as a GSoC(http://socghop.appspot.com/) project this year, and i have finished my project proposal already, are you interested in mentoring me ? If you want to,please let me know,i will give you my proposal and expecting your review.
