On Thu, 20 Oct 2005 09:45:00 -0700 I wrote:

In my XSLT 1.0 example I wrote,

<   <xsl:value-of select="$package" />

D'oh, silly me. I forgot to adjust for the first
recursive pass. To strip the false leading '.' one
would could use

  <xsl:value-of select="substring-after($package, '.')"/>

So I've seen different takes on this list re 1.0 vs the
not-yet-released 2.0, but at my department we made the choice that the
benefits of 2.0 outweigh the costs of adjusting any 2.0 code which
gets modified between now and final draft.
