Welcome to XSL-List

Welcome to XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, the open forum for the
discussion of XSL -- Extensible Style Language.

XSL-List hosts discussion of XSL itself, XSL applications and
implementation, and XSL user questions.  XSL-List is open to everyone,
users and developers, experts and novices alike.  There is no
restriction to what may be posted on the XSL-List provided it is
related to XSL.

XSL-List is not a W3C mailing list nor is it affiliated with W3C or
any other organization.  XSL-List has no official standing with any
organization and XSL-List subscribers do not constitute a Special
Interest Group. However, XSL-List was established with the
encouragement of members of the W3C XSL Working Group, and members of
the Working Group are among the subscribers to the list.

XSL-List is provided by Mulberry Technologies as a service to the
XSL user community and the XSL standardization effort.

Only subscribers can post to XSL-List, but since the goal is to
increase the level of XSL knowledge, XSL-List is being archived on
Mulberry's web site for everybody to view.  The topics being discussed
on the XSL-List changes as new ideas arise or existing problems are
dealt with, but the archive contains all of the ideas and solutions
that have been discussed on the list.


DAILY DIGEST
============

Daily digests -- copies of a whole days XSL-List messages (or a 40,000
character chunk, whichever comes first) sent as one email message --
are available.  Not only is it one mail message containing all of that
day's XSL-List messages, it averages half the bytes of the individual
messages since it doesn't include the overhead of the mail headers
from each message.  To unsubscribe from the list and subscribe to the
digest, send mail to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with the following two
lines as the body of your message:

unsubscribe XSL-List
subscribe XSL-List-Digest


POSTING
=======

Only subscribers can post to XSL-List, and only from the address they
used when they subscribed.

There is no restriction on what may be posted provided it is related
to XSL.

Do not begin your subject line with "help" or "subscribe" since the
list software will bounce the message because it looks like is an
administrative request.

Both subscribers to XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and subscribers to
XSL-List-Digest@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx should post their messages to
XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, and the messages will be received by both
subscribers to the list and subscribers to the digest.

Do not start a new thread by replying to an unrelated message and just
changing the subject line since the header of your message will
contain references to the previous message and your new message will
appear in the archive as one of the replies to the original message.
It is better to start a new message for a new thread.


REPLYING TO POSTS
=================

The reply address of XSL-List messages (and of digests) is
XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx so replies go to the list by default.  If
you want to reply to just the author of a post, you should change the
"To:" field in your reply.


CROSS-POSTING
=============

Cross-posting to the XSL-List and to another list, even the DSSSList,
is often counter-productive unless everybody who replies to the thread
is on both lists.  Cross-posts from non-subscribers continueing the
thread will bounce, and XSL-List subscribers who are not also on the
other list will only see half of the thread, as will those on the
other list who are not also on the XSL-List.


UNSUBSCRIBING FROM XSL-List
===========================

To unsubscribe from the list, send mail to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
with "unsubscribe XSL-List" as the body of your message.


UNSUBSCRIBING FROM THE DIGEST
=============================

To unsubscribe from the digest, send mail to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
with "unsubscribe XSL-List-Digest" as the body of your message.


ARCHIVE
=======

XSL-List messages are archived at
http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/archive.


FURTHER INFORMATION ON XSL
==========================

The original XSL note is at http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-XSL. An
excellent source of information about XSL is the XSL page of Robin
Cover's SGML/XML Web Page.


DSSSLIST -- THE DSSSL USERS' MAILING LIST
=========================================

Mulberry Technologies also provides the DSSSList -- the DSSSL Users'
Mailing List.  For subscription information and the DSSSList archive,
