I'm just quoting Phil Wadler, who recently (at the School of Advanced
FP in Oxford, England, August) in his lecture about XQuery said that
"XSLT is probably the most used functional language and the ugliest
one".

Of course Phil W has come up with a brilliant plan to solve the problem of
XSLT being the most ugly: Devise XML Query which will easily take that
particular burden from XSLT...

So Dimitre were you here in Oxford in the summer? You could have come
and said hello!
