So is the W3C going to coordinate XPath and DOM2?

XT
XSL:P
LotusXSL
Saxon
Microsoft
some others that I don't use any more

All of these handle building the XML tree differently. I am hesitant to lock
my self to a single proprietary DOM representation. I had done this with XT
and I had to keep rewriting code to track the internal changes.

I am currently using XT for XSL processing and Sun's XML parser for building
DOM trees.
