So let's rephrase my original quandary yet again.
"Given the neglect (i.e. XSLT for anything else other than
Saxon/Java (notwithstanding .Net autoport)),
does *any other* community really want one?"
I'm not sure there's been neglect, exactly. It's more complicated than that.
We might just be about where mobile phone technology was ca. 1985.
I think there's a long way to go still. I don't think that the lack
of uptake in the free software community is necessarily an indicator
of anything other than the complexity of the task and the excellence of Saxon.
I also think that Mike Kay's having shifted his model to a more
"mature" one (if you want the more advanced features you can pay) is
a good thing for the market, not just for him. It's an affirmation
that the investment is worth something.
Cheers,
