Hello!

On behalf of the EXSLT.NET team I'm pleased to announce the next release 
of the EXSLT.NET library.

EXSLT.NET library is community-developed free open-source implementation 
of the EXSLT extensions to XSLT for the .NET platform. EXSLT.NET fully 
implements the following EXSLT modules: Dates and Times, Common,  Math, 
Random,  Regular Expressions, Sets and Strings. In addition EXSLT.NET 
library provides proprietary set of useful extension functions.

Download EXSLT.NET 1.1 at the EXSLT.NET Workspace home - 
http://workspaces.gotdotnet.com/exslt

EXSLT.NET online documentation - http://www.xmland.net/exslt

Features:
- 65 supported EXSLT extension functions
- 13 proprietary extension functions
- Support for XSLT multiple output via exsl:document extension element
- Can be used not only in XSLT, but also in XPath-only environment
- Thoroughly optimized for speed implementation of set functions

What's new:
*   New EXSLT extension functions has been implemented:
str:encode-uri(),  str:decode-uri(),  random:random-sequence().
* New proprietary EXSLT.NET extension functions has been implemented: 
dyn2:evaluate(), which allows to evaluate a string as an XPath 
expression, date2:day-name(), date2:day-abbreviation(), 
date2:month-name() and date2:month-abbreviation() - these functions are 
culture-aware versions of the appropriate EXSLT functions.
* Support for time zone in date-time functions has  been implemented.
* Multithreading issue with ExsltTransform class has been fixed. Now 
ExsltTransform class is thread-safe for Transform() method calls just 
like the  System.Xml.Xsl.XslTransform class.
* Lots of minor bugs has been fixed. See EXSLT.NET bug tracker for more 
info.
* We switched to Visual Studio .NET 2003, so building of the project has 
been greatly simplified.
* Complete suite of NUnit tests for each extension function has been 
implemented.

Any comments and bug reports are welcome.
