I don't know, and if I did know what they were using I probably couldn't tell you because ITT is in a competitive situation.

If you were selling your XSLT implementation, what would you say (besides it's developed in Eiffel)? You said in a separate e-mail that the .NET implementation is for XSLT 1.0, and that ge XSLT is targeted to 2.0, therefore it is much more powerful. Stuff like that is good. Is it a complete 2.0 implementation? Will it be? Is it the only 2.0 implementation?

Thanks,
Brian

I am a member of the W3C's XSL working group (officialy at least - if
you look at appendix H of the XSLT 2.0 recommendation, you will see
confirmation. Whether thius helps you I don't know).
