Hey Jeff,

As a matter of note there are 4 other XSLT 2.0 projects that I know of
that are in various phases of development:

Oracle's 10g XDK project
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/xml/xdk/xdkbeta.html

Saxon.NET project
http://www.x2x2x.org/x2x2x/home

XQP Project
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xqp

Colin's Eiffel project - Sorry Colin, I'm not sure where your project is
located!

I have no doubt there are more than this but with the XSLT 2.0
reccomendation still a bit off I'm assuming then any of the major
players beyond Saxonica and Oracle are taking there time to produce more
competitive products before they release them in beta.

Hope this helps!

<M:D/>
