Anybody know when "transform" became the term for the

Hi everybody. As part of an article, I'm talking about the immediate
prehistory of XSL. I'd be interested in knowing when transformations
became known as transformations. I assume as part of the DSSSL work? Or
is it a scripting language term? Any ideas? Rather than an OED-style
hunt for the earliest occurrence, I'm really looking for a sense of when
extract and markup translation (is that a good definition?) began to be
commonly referred to as a "transformation".
