Yes, you do it wrong. I explain:

<collection> is the root of your document, so It couldn't be matched by
an XSL processor (according to the WD 1.0) by is name.
If you wants <collection> to be the root tag, your XSL should be:

 <xsl:template match="/">
	...
 </xsl:template>

If not, your XML should be:

<TheNameOfTheRoot>
 <collection>
         <a>aaa</a>
         <b>bbb</b>
         <c>ccc</c>
 </collection>
	...
</TheNameOfTheRoot>
