Re: Re[2]: Transformation using Saxon.Net-1.0-RC1

Hi Dr Kay,

Is this the appropriate place to ask questions regarding this or
should I ask them on the Saxon-Help list?

On a side note I too was very excited to hear that Dimitre in turn was
pleased with the performance and common functionality and now this
excitement has tripled to hear that you are pleased by this.  Again,
there are many others (including you) who deserve praise for this and
I am simply pleased to be evan a small part of bringing this first
release to the community, looking forward to much more to come.  There
is so much more that can be done and I am completely convinced that by
engaging the community far more will be accomplished than if this were
to not take place.  And to give credit again where credit is due I
believe that it was through the encouragement and focus that Dimitre
gave to me and this project that has ultimately brought us to this
point, ready to move forward with much excitement and anticipation.

I will await your response as to where I should post these questions. 
I wonder if even the Wiki would be a good place as it will keep the
conversations in a central place that can be added to as time permits
as well as by others who may decide to become involved in various
ways.  Thoughts?
