Re: Big XSLT applications just got easier to manage

First off, I absolutely love your blog! You are a legend of XSLT and it shows.

Secondly, it would be awesome if you consider going into more detail regarding practices for creating modules for XSLT. One issue I have ran into in trying to make XSLT modules is that it is difficult for me to break everything up in a way that allows reuse and allows simple use from different applications/libraries. Part of my issue is somewhat specific to using Python where a library I write utilizes XSLT for working with XML can be packaged as a standalone egg. Since I can’t depend on a single point of install it is not trivial to simply include the other XSLT b/c they are essentially within a package that is not a typical filesystem.

I have some ideas of how to get around this and it really shouldn’t be too hard, but if you have any design patterns regarding this sort of thing please consider posting.

Oh yes, Oxygen does rule. The Eclipse plugin with emacs keybindings is awesome. Thanks for blogging!!
