Cameron McCormack raised this comment {qt-2003Nov0052-01}: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-qt-comments/2003Nov/0052.html I made a personal reply at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-qt-comments/2003Nov/0056.html which reads: Thanks for drawing my attention to this interesting paper. I think it has always been part of the design philosophy of XSLT that by keeping the language side-effect-free, incremental transformation would be possible. This paper seems to suggest that this assuption is correct. If anyone wants to propose specific changes to the language that are needed in order to develop incremental processors, then the Working Group would be happy to look at such suggestions. However, "specifying incremental XSLT processors" is outside the WG's scope: we only specify the language, not details of how implementations should work. The Working Group considered the comment on 2004-01-20 and decided to endorse my personal reply. This closes the comment with no change to the specification. Cameron, can you please confirm that this closure of the comment is acceptable? With regards, Michael Kay
