Hi all,
    It's been few years that I've written to this list. With apologies to
XSLT geniuses like Mike Kay (we draw lot of inspiration from him, for this
work), I on behalf of Apache Xalan-J team wish to inform that we've
completed a fairly useful implementation (the product is yet not released,
but it's source code is available on web, and can be built to Java's jar
file) of XSLT 3.0 specification. I've written all the code myself modifying
Xalan-J's XSLT 1.0 implementation for XSLT 3.0 specification, with active
support and encouragement from various Xalan team members.

Apache Xalan-J's XSLT 3.0 development processor's specification compliance
as of this day, is located here,
https://github.com/apache/xalan-java/blob/xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn/src/test/java/org/apache/xalan/tests/w3c/xslt3/result/w3c_xslt3_testsuite_xalan-j_result.xml
[1]
Though, I'm not very much authorised to invite anyone to build Xalan-J's
XSLT 3.0 processor from its code base, but I think it'll be ok for anyone
interested to build Xalan-J from its code base by adhering to Apache
Software Foundation's code licence.

Many thanks.


Regards,
Mukul Gandhi
