You may be using the XSLT language, but you're declaring your instructions
to belong to WD-XSL.

What you're saying here is that within the scope of <for-each/>, the
xsl: namespace prefix is http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl.  The XSLT specification
explicitly states that XSLT instructions must be within the XSLT
namespace (http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform).

What you probably want to do is something like this:

	<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
	 version="1.0">

	...
	<current_projects>
	       <xsl:for-each order-by="+project_title" 
			select="project[project_title$lt$'Z']">
	...

This is because for-each in the WD-xsl namespace isn't an XSLT instruction;
it shouldn't do anything.
