maybe you should ask Phillip Fearon

Fair enough. Philip? I do agree with the XSL+XSLT+XSLT 2.0 argument, but the number of people who even know what an xml stylsheet is is going to be minimal: It's not something you encounter until you're well into your training of XML and related technologies. In other words, no one hears about "xml stylsheets" and says "that's sounds cool. I wonder how I use them..." and instead "XSLT? That sounds cool... search > learn > discover => Oh, cool... I can invoke a transform using a processing instruction. How do I do that?" at which point they might search for it (though chances are good that if they've gotten that far into XSLT they own a book from Dr. Kay, Jeni Tennison, etc. so will look it up in that book rather than search for it.)
