I hope it is ok to post this message here. I think it is relevant to the PHP community that we are
pleased to announce the alpha release Saxon/C version 0.2 is now available for Linux and Windows:-
Saxon-HE for the C/C++ and PHP platforms.
Supports XSLT 2.0 and XQuery processing.
We have made a number of changes and fixed several bugs in the new release some based on the
feedback received. Thanks to the users who tried out the first release.
Details of version 0.2 release:
* Added XQuery 1.0 support
* Change of C/C++ and PHP APIs.
* Bug fixed #1961 - Saxon/C only works with C++ - We have added specific C API with compile and run
scripts.
* Bug fixed #1963 - Show SAXON and Excelsior JET versions from phpinfo()
* Bug fixed #1959 - Files should be resolved relative to CWD instead of file path
For further details see project page:

The product is cross-compiled from Saxon 9.5 using the JET Excelsior compiler. The alpha release
provides C/C++ and PHP APIs for XSLT and XQuery only; we expect to expand the range to all Saxon
editions and capabilities in due course. Like Saxon on .NET, the product is single-sourced from the
Java master code, so we expect it to remain in sync with new releases on the Java platform.
We're hoping this product will fill a major gap that has existed for far too long, making XSLT
2.0 available to the large developer community using PHP and associated tools.
