Subject: Re: [xsl] Is there an XSLT/XPath processor good enough to use in life-critical applications? From: "Michael Kay mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 15 Nov 2019 21:22:16 -0000 |

But boring administrative systems, like one that sends letters to patients telling them when their next cervical smear test is due, are also safety-critical. Probably more deaths are caused by failures in that kind of system than by failures in systems where the consequences of failure are more immediate. WHO report 2016: "A study of reported errors from five family practices in a high-income country found that most reports contained administrative errors and more than three-quarters had the potential of serious harm". So let's change the question: Are you using XSLT/XPath in a life-critical application such as sending appointment letters to hospital patients? Michael Kay Saxonica
