But let me first preface this with the following... The goal of the 
Saxon.NET project is to provide to the .NET community an API that is 
100% compliant with that of Dr. Michael Kay's latest Saxon API and 
that can be used to implement a XSLT 2.0, XPath 2.0, and XQuery 1.0 
transformation via any language and subsequent compiler that 
implements a solution supported by version 1.1+ of the ..NET 
framework.

I'm not interested in anything MS-specific myself.  The whole point of 
what I'm doing is to provide alternatives to MS-centric workflows (the 
academy is totally dominated by MS, and I'm tired of it).  So document 
formats I'm interested in are DocBook, TEI, OpenOffice.



If others want to pick this up for integration with Word/WordML, 
though, that'd be good, so it's nice to have Saxon.NET as an 
alternative.  I'm thinking Mike's suggestion of a web service is 
sounding like the best medium-term solution, though.



If not now, there will be XSLT 2.0 solutions, via your desired 
mechanism, in the months, not years, to come.

Open source?
