Write (or Rewrite) Your Stylesheets from Scratch
Obviously this is the most drastic option. If you don’t have a large investment in XSLT 1.0 code, you can start writing XSLT 2.0 stylesheets from scratch. It’s more likely that you would replace a few stylesheets used in parts of your application, and then use your expertise and experience to rewrite larger and more sophisticated stylesheets.
This requires a significant commitment in development resources and training. Having the resources to develop stylesheets from scratch is one thing; those resources need to understand all of the new features of XSLT 2.0 and how to take advantage of them.
