I am not sure this means that they will not support xslt2.0 rather that it wont be in the MSXML libraries. I have done a bit of development with VC++6.0 and .Net (cut me some slack I needed the money!) - the difference between the two seems to be an underlying platform change. So I think you can read the statement more like - we wont update windows3.11 to do xslt2.0 - I don't see him saying Microsoft will not support xslt2.0 only MSXML will not. > I wonder if this means that most people running Windows will not have > access to XSLT 2.0, ever.

It may be.
