Re: Proposal: exslt:memoisation attribute and/or extension element

I see that I didn't mention something important. 

We all know that we don't have to put the memoisation attribute in a
namespace when it is attribute of func:function.

exslt:memoisation will need to be in a namespace in order to be used as
attribute of xsl:function

So, we will be adding the ability to specify memoisation for xsl:function
of XSLT 2.0.
