I'm a bit concerned that this 'he has been throwing this diatribe at every venue' claim is a bit misleading. Michael Leventhal is scarcely the only person with serious reservations about XSL, nor is he the only person to make them public. While I can understand why you might be irritated at people who consider your project a waste of time, if not downright dangerous, this kind of spin ignores the fact that a considerable number of people who oppose XSL do in fact exist. There are many different facets to this opposition, and only a very few of them (notably the vocabulary conflict with CSS) have been addressed. XSL-bashing has a history as long as XSL and, I suspect, a long future ahead of it. Now returning to our usual programming...
