None of the templates you show will add any white space coming from the
stylesheet (all the white space you showed is in whitespace-only text
nodes, and they are (effectively) removed before the stylesheet is
processed.

Also you are not copying any text nodes from the source, only element
and attribute nodes.

so..

There should not be any white space between elements other than the
whitespace (newline and some spaces) that may be added to indent
as you say you have  have indent="yes".

The only other source of whitespace in the output from teh templates you
show is  <xsl:copy-of select="*[name()!=...]"/> which will of course
copy the whole content of the specified elements, including white space.

what processor  are you using, and do you get something better with
indent="no"  ?
