Thanks for this turn Mukul.

I suspect my blog could also have something to do with XSLT -- I only
tried to put there what I have found really amazing: from cascading
deletes, spelling checking and concordance, a SUDOKU solver, to a
general LR parser and processing JSON directly with XSLT. Certainly,
most of these problems originated in the xsl-list.

For a period of 2-3 months I was deeply engaged solving Project Euler
problems (65 of them so far) and most of them with XSLT.
Unfortunately, it is against the rules of Project Euler to publish a
solution, but I highly recommend these problems to any XSLTeer and be
assured that all of them can be solved easily with XSLT :)
