I've just spent a few hours working with it on the new XT release. Using
just two new features - xsl:template modes and xsl:attribute - I've managed
to re-structure my XSL scripts in a few hours so they became much more
powerful, much more maintainable, and most importantly - a lot more fun to
write.

There's a lot of other issues resolved as well (to get an idea, the new
draft is 117 pages long, the old one had 90). I didn't examine the
formatting objects section :-) but it seems they got a lot of attention as
well. I'm sure that soon enough we'll be picking at the remaining warts, but
the XSL WG has really done a good job here, and so did James in providing an
implementation to play with.

Thanks!
