Olivier,

Most of these topics are covered in the articles at:

   http://fxsl.sf.net

and at:

      http://www.mulberrytech.com/Extreme/Proceedings/xslfo-pdf/2003/Novatche
v01/EML2003Novatchev01.pdf


   Sequences have become available only in XPath 2.0

   Saxon 8.x has a vendor-specific attribute (in the
"http://saxon.sf.net/" namespace) saxon:memo-function, whic allows to
specify memoisation on a given xsl:function.


Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev.
