or

<xsl:template match="formatdate">
  <xsl:param name="tstamp" />

  <xsl:value-of select="concat( substring-before($tstamp,'-'),'/',
	substring(substring-after($tstamp,'-'),1,2),'/',
	substring(substring-after($tstamp,'-'),4,2))" />

</xsl:template>

...

<xsl:call-template name="formatdate">
  <xsl:with-param name="tstamp" select="/dataroot/GrantNet/c9" />
</xsl:call-template>


if verbosity is not your primary concern...


Cheerz,

Andreas
