RE: [xsl] create new xml with xsl

[Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On the other hand, the replacement of result-tree-fragments with plain-ol' 
node sets in XSLT 2.0 will mean that many of the kinds of things that now 
require two passes, will be possible in one, without pipelining. Not that 
this will always be a good idea.

Cheers,
Wendell
