My standard set of useful resources, not in any particular order:
My 2-part article on styling stylesheets for XSLT tracing/debugging:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xm...ss1/index.html
XSLT Formatting Objects
http://xml.apache.org/fop/
XSL users' mailing list
http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/index.html
And Dave Pawson's excellent XSL FAQ to go with it
http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/index.html
Schema developers' mailing list
xm***********@w3.org
See
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xmlschema-dev/
and
http://www.w3.org/Mail/Request .
Apache's XML projects, including Xerces (parser) and Xalan (XSLT)
projects
http://xml.apache.org http://xml.apache.org/mail.html
OASIS XML hub, and the XML-DEV mailing list
http://xml.org http://xml.org/xml-dev/index.shtml
W3C specifications (the official word on almost anything XML-related,
though generally rather tersely written)
http://www.w3.org/TR
Annotated XML Specification -- it's slightly out of date, but the
explanations of what the spec is actually trying to say, and why, are
an absolutely indispensible resource. Be warned that it may not
display well in older browsers (Netscape 4.75, for example, may have
trouble with it.)

Document Object Model
http://www.w3.org/DOM/ http://www.w3.org/DOM/faq.html http://www.w3.org/DOM/MailingList
IBM's XML DeveloperWorks website -- many tutorials and tools.
DeveloperWorks is run as a semi-independent magazine, so not everything
that's published there reflects IBM's official position, but partly for
that reason it's a darned good resource for folks who are trying to
understand all the available alternatives.

development
