Ok I admit I haven't thought about this in anger but a problem shared....etc... I am doing a matching algorithm to match movie data from different repositories so that I know when the repositories are referencing the same movie even though they may hold different metadata. It's not enough to match solely on title - one reason for that is movies have subtitles and may go by the subtitle in a different venue. So let's say thanks to xsl:key I have in a variable $titles all the movies that have that title and in a variable $actors I have all the movies that that actor featured in. A (out of many) criteria I could have is that if the data from the respective venues has it's title and an actor in common then they are the same movie, thats a plain intersect between $titles and $movies but I want something stronger than that. I want the data from the venues to match only if they have at least 2 actors in common.
