OK, as David Carlisle pointed out, in the second template the context
node is an <attribute>, and we're trying to select its <attribute> children.
Oops.
So make your first apply-templates select "Info" instead of
"/Quote/Info/attribute", and change the second template's match
to match="Info".
Now it should work...
