Are you talking about XSLT 2.0 ? :)


Microsoft learnt that the hard way and that's the reason both XSLT 2 and XQuery are out. SQL Server will support some minimal "stable" part of XQuery and that's it. Moreover, as many microsofties say nowadays, they don't see much requests for client side declarative XML processing tools...
