Microsoft XSL and Conformance
Subject: Microsoft XSL and Conformance From: Andrew Kimball <akimball@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2000 01:36:55 -0800 |
Hi all, I'm Andy Kimball, the Microsoft XSL developer. After today's "nested template abomination" discussion, I had a couple of comments. First, Microsoft is committed to delivering a conformant XSLT processor. If you don't believe "Microsoft", then at least believe me. I'm writing the thing. I've often gritted my teeth and implemented some feature that I thought was inelegant, less than useful, or arbitrarily limited, just to be compliant. As I receive feedback from the XSL community, I've been surprised at how vocal and passionate people are about conformance (of course, people also want performance, scalability, and usability without any trade-offs, and they want it yesterday--unrealistic, but understandable). Now, I may not be able to cross every tiny 't', and dot every insignificant 'i', but I will make a good-faith effort to implement according to the 1.0 spec. If you find conformance problems that concern you, feel free to e-mail me at akimball@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ~Andy Kimball XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
