Whoa, just realized I slightly misspoke here.  What I meant to say is;

"... it is not a requirement of technologies in the XML family that
they necessarily *be used to* produce or consume XML."

Obviously XSLT *can* produce XML.  That it can also be used to produce
plain text demonstrates my point that using technologies in the XML
family doesn't necessarily mean using XML.
