Not if you declare a doc namespace, such as:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:doc="http://my.com/MyXSLExtensions">

Doesn't this break the stylesheet? If the annotations are outside of a
template, then it is incorrect XSLT syntax, and if inside, they will
get copied to the output? Or am I missing something?
Thanks.
Mayank.

I have tried to create a tool to document XSL.
All the xsl documents will have tag commands like this:
<!--(_at_)overview This xsl page is used to calculate the
factorial of a given number -->
Horrible! Why invent your own markup syntax instead of using XML?
Use something like:
<doc:overview>This xsl page is used to calculate the
factorial of a given number</doc:overview>
Then you can use XSLT to manipulate the documentation.
Other people have done work on stylesheet annotation, I'm sure there's
something you can re-use but I can't point you to it.
