I don't think I would have wanted to tackle the example in this article using XSLT 1.0: I would have done it in Java.

No. The spec was already pretty stable by then. Most of the changes since then have been refining the definition of edge cases. > > Concerning features of Saxon, I'm not certain exactly what > "schema-aware" means.
