Wow.  I'd XSLT's adoption has been rapid fire.  Just one year old and it has 
easily a score of implementations, a huge cache of practice and techniques, 
one of the liveliest programming-related mailing lists there are, and a 
fully-dedicated conference.

I think it's been a remarkable success, which to shoft topic, is one of the 
reasons I'm so vehemently opposed to the premature hacking apparent in the 
XSLT 1.1 WD.
