Re: [xsl] toknize() not working with saxon9

["Imsieke, Gerrit, le-tex" <gerrit.imsieke@xxxxxxxxx>]

This makes me reflect on whether the world is better off with immediate 
availability of the most able persons to everyone, or whether these 
espaecially gifted people should be secluded so that they wisdom may 
flourish undisturbedly. The danger with seclusion is of course that 
these people might not see real-life problems any more. Michaels' 
accessibility and groundedness, listening to user's needs, has rendered 
Saxon useful to a very high degree. But I think, like in Hollywood or in 
every banana republic, at some point an aide has to jump in and protect 
the important people from all-too mundane things. Well, I'm not that 
aide to understand a kusa's issue without further information, so I'll 
appeal to another aide that is closer to Michael (or to himself, as he 
listens to users like me) to refrain from enganging too much in fields 
that don't bring our case forward.

Just my 2 pence, as a self-declared XSLT2 cheerleader.

(Glad you find your time to work on things like XSLT 2.1 with all these 
cheerleaders cheering at you...)
