Re: [xsl] XSLT 2.0 or XSLT 1.0 -- which is more elegant? (Was: Re: [xsl] mixing it up: REST+XML Namespaces + XLST)

Since the November 2004 Working Draft, you can nest a (WXS) schema
within an <xsl:import-schema> element, so you can define data types
within the stylesheet module if you want. This only applies to
Schema-Aware XSLT processors, of course.
