With XSLT2 recently becoming a final recommendation, will there be a spate Good question. Here's my take: I use Dr. Kay's XPath 2.0 and XSLT 2.0 titles on a near daily basis, and while there are certainly differences in the spec of 2004/5 and today, generally speaking they're small, edge case changes, of which I can only assume the necessary erata will be available for @ http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/productCd-0764569090,descCd-view_errata.html before too much time passes. That said, given that, 1) Dr. Kay is one of the most active (if not *the* most active contributor to this list), and in cases particular to his books as well as Saxon, the response time for support is near instant. 2) The activity on this list is *HIGH*. When problems are presented, solutions are near guarenteed to soon follow. With all of the above in mind: Go buy both Dr. Kay's XPath 2.0 and XSLT 2.0 titles, and find comfort in knowing that on the rare occassion you find an error, the fix will arrive shortly after a post to this list. Hope this helps! -- /M:D M. David Peterson http://mdavid.name | http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/au/2354
