Does this mean that XSL version 1.0 will not have any mechanism for
working on the anchors of links identified by XLinks. 

If so, the two W3C style languages seem to be taking opposite approaches
to linking:

 * CSS says that if you have a private (non-XLink) linking convention then
you cannot render the link at all,

 * XSL provides enough facilities for you to implement your own linking
convention but it cannot have links as powerful as those provided by
XLink.

Company spokeswoman Lana Simon stressed that Interactive 
Yoda is not a Furby. Well, not exactly. 

"This is an interactive toy that utilizes Furby technology," 
Simon said. "It will react to its surroundings and will talk."
