Well, i'm not a native english-speaking person, so...
I pronounce it like Shalan, Sh as in shut-up and alan as in Alan!!!
It gives a nice sound like Ka-bong, or like some sorcerer spelling a cast...
"And then, XALAN, the frog turn into a beautiful princess..."
Citando Marty McKeever <marty(_dot_)mckeever(_at_)goingv(_dot_)com>:
funny thread. I always called it Zylan (rhymes with fly-man). Picked it up
from some consultant or other...

Subject: RE: [xsl] Xalan pronunciation
Unsure if there is a single 'correct', but I was surprised
some years back when I met one of the early developers;
He pronounced it Zale-Anne.
I pronounced it Ex-Allan.
Oh good, 'zay-lan' (zale-anne) it must be then :)
Maybe Joseph is about somewhe
re to confirm...
