Steve Ball : The XSLT Standard Library 1.0

"provides the XSLT developer with a set of XSLT templates for commonly used functions. These are implemented purely in XSLT, that is they do not use any extensions." I didn't know that there were DocBook Extensions For XSLT Stylesheet Documentation. How cool is that? <!-- tags, begone! -->

Props to the Movable Type gang for a new release

complete with bug fixes. I sent in possible fixes for some of the upload problems, this morning, so maybe those will make it into the next release, too.

Tels : Dev::Bollocks.pm

"implements /dev/bollocks, which generates management bullshit whenever you need it. ... this module doesn't simple do a head /dev/bollocks, that would be too easy, too fast and non-portable. And bullshit is universilly portable. Thus the module makes a subclass of Math::Sting and changes the default charset to a charset that emulates the original /dev/bollocks charset. As a side-effect you can calculate with bollocks strings, or even compare them to find out which is greater crap than the other."
