that's weave, but for Warren's version, where the original file isn't 
directly usable then you also need "tangle" to extract a runnable
stylesheet from the documented sources.

You'd do something along the lines of the following (ignoring
attributes for now)

when applied to the documented source, it copies xsl namespaced elements
throws away doc elements and out_1 elements, and moves any out_2
elements into the xsl namespace.

Thus the result would be a usable stylesheet without documenattion and
using the "out_2" version of the code.
