XSL is a [stylesheet] language that can be used for displaying [Extensible Markup Language (XML)] documents. Using XSL is a two-step process, the first step being a transformation of the XML document using [Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations], and the second step being the rendering of the result of the transformation, which is done using [Extensible Stylesheet Language Formatting Objects]. 6, record 1, English, - Extensible%20Stylesheet%20Language

"The working language of the W3C is English. The official version of a W3C document is the English language version at the W3C site. The W3C tries to reach as many people and organizations around the world as possible. But translating specifications is a lot of work, and we need your help. We made it easy to help us with translations, and invite you to volunteer to translate some W3C specification, alone or together with somebody else". 1, record 4, English, - Extensible%20Stylesheet%20Language%28XSL%29%20%3A%20Version%201%2E%200
