I agree. An XSL implementation would be required to conform to both the transformation and the formatting languages. This is exactly how it is now. But implementations like XT could never claim 100% conformance. It could claim 100% conformance to XTL or XSL-T or whatever you want to call it. At the opposite end of the spectrum, an application could implement XFL and completely disregard the trasnformation part of XSL. But any application claiming conformance to XSL would be required to implement both XTL and XFL. All this would require of the XSL WG is a paragraph stating that section 2 of the XSL spec can be referred to as XTL and section 3, XFL. Even if they didn't want to do that, there's nothing stopping us from calling them that. Jason Diamond.
