The official and public W3C position on the relationship between XSL and
CSS is available at:

  http://www.w3.org/Style/Activity.html

which says "The general aim is that the XSL and CSS Working Groups keep
their formatting models compatible and their properties the same for all
areas of functionality where XSL and CSS overlap."

and at

 http://www.w3.org/Style/

which says "CSS and XSL will use the same underlying formatting model
and designers will therefore have access to the same formatting features
in both languages."
