Subject:   New XT release

A new release of XT is available. See:

http://www.jclark.com/xml/xt.html

for more information. New in this release is support for:

doctype-system, doctype-public, omit-xml-declaration and standalone attributes on xsl:output
the preceding axis
xsl:message
DOM Level 1

The DOM support implements XT's object model on top of the DOM Level 1. The good news is that this does not build a separate tree (it creates temporary objects on the fly to give XT the view it expects of the XML document); the bad news is that it is sloooow. So you don't want to use this unless you already have a DOM tree in memory. This only provides support for using the DOM for the source tree. There is no support for using the DOM for the result tree. This would be relatively easy to do, but I don't know whether it's useful enough to be worthwhile.
