I think that imagining that XSLT 1.1 was just about complete is
re-writing history a bit - I seem to remember a *massive* debate here
about xsl:script, what it did and what it should do. If everything in
XSLT 1.1 had been cut-and-dried, I doubt the XSL WG would have chosen
to put it on hold.

What's strange is that most of the impact of supporting XML Schema is
primarily on *XPath* 2.0 rather than *XSLT* 2.0, so if XML Schema
support is the only thing holding things up then why haven't we seen
an XSLT WD yet?

Perhaps they're putting it off until after XSL reaches Rec or are
planning to bring it out to coincide with XSLT's 2nd birthday :)
