      XSL Transformations, is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML documents (or HTML/textual output).

      A separate library called libxslt is available implementing XSLT-1.0 for libxml2. This module "libxslt" too can be found in the Gnome CVS base.

      You can check the progresses on the libxslt Changelog.

                This document describes libxml, the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the
 Gnome project. XML is a standard for building tag-based
 structured documents/data.
                Here are some key points about libxml:
                • Libxml2 exports Push (progressive) and Pull (blocking) type parser
     interfaces for both XML and HTML.

                  XML is a standard for
+markup-based structured documents. Here is an example XML
+document:
                  
+
                  <?xml version="1.0"?>
+<EXAMPLE prop1="gnome is great" prop2="&amp; linux too">
+  <head>
+   <title>Welcome to Gnome</title>
+  </head>
+  <chapter>
+   <title>The Linux adventure</title>
+   <p>bla bla bla ...</p>
+   <image href="linus.gif"/>
+   <p>...</p>
+  </chapter>
+</EXAMPLE>
                  The first line specifies that it is an XML document and gives useful
+information about its encoding.  Then the rest of the document is a text
+format whose structure is specified by tags between brackets. Each
+tag opened has to be closed. XML is pedantic about this. However, if
+a tag is empty (no content), a single tag can serve as both the opening and
+closing tag if it ends with /> rather than with
+>. Note that, for example, the image tag has no content (just
+an attribute) and is closed by ending the tag with />.
                  XML can be applied successfully to a wide range of tasks, ranging from
+long term structured document maintenance (where it follows the steps of
+SGML) to simple data encoding mechanisms like configuration file formatting
+(glade), spreadsheets (gnumeric), or even shorter lived documents such as
+WebDAV where it is used to encode remote calls between a client and a
+server.
