The huge traffic we see on this list, with questions asked by people
seeking help on their live projects, is a testament that XSLT is used
a lot in industry.
One other point I can think is - today enormous amount of data exist
in XML format, which is growing by huge proportions every day. There
is lot of use of XSL-FO these days to transform XML into PDF. This
employs XSLT.
So XSLT is definitely important in IT architect's toolkit.

for it.
Well, in a recent conversation about technologies, one of them goes
for the kill and throws out this doozy:
I can just sum it up for you:
<xsl:apply-templates select="DeadTechnology" />
So, is XSLT dead? I guess to put things into context a bit; does the
rule which MS has over so many developers, the drag and drop GUI
designer and ready made solutions in a box, does this suggest that
XSLT is a dying technology?
