I understand there is an implementation written in ocaml as well.

The reason I ask, is I am in the planning stages of writing an xslt
processor in Eiffel. One of the driving requirements is for Gobo, a
protable Eiffel library, to be able to produce html and print versions
of it's documentation from docbook.

But starting now, I want to write a 2.0 processor (with 1.0 backwards
compatibility mode).

Which extensions are these?
