Re: [xsl] Are there any free, fully-compliant XSLT/XPath 3.0 processors?

SW isn't OS, but you (or someone) can still investigate it. Getting a 
limited (by time or functionality or quantity) version is one way.

Of course, that's essential. Every day we issue 5-10 evaluation licenses 
for Saxon-EE (free use for 30 days). We're also generous about extending 
the evaluation period for people who are doing a genuine evaluation.

Another way to try the software is to get a copy of oXygen or Stylus 
Studio, both of which include it in the package.

As a vendor, I don't think we will have any difficulty selling the 
thousand-or-so enterprise edition licenses needed to fund the 
development. The concern I'm hearing in this thread is that we might 
judge that a success, but the wider user community wants something 
different - they want to feel they are doing something mainstream and 
career-enhancing.
