No, actually you won't have.  It seems to be getting lost in the Java 
vs. the World flame fest, but there's more new stuff in XSLT 1.1 than 
simply xsl:script. There's also xsl:document and the elimination of 
the result tree fragment data type. Claims that XSLT 1.1 offers 
nothing to non-Java implementors simply aren't true.
