| This is the home page for the Open Source SAXON XSLT processor developed by Michael Kay.See also the project page for Saxon.The latest version of Saxon is version 9.This is a complete
and conformant implementation of the XSLT 2.Saxonica
on the Java and .XSLT and XQuery processor.SA is a commercial
product available from Saxonica Limited.SA is able to compile XQuery code directly into Java classes.This can give
dramatic improvements in execution time for large documents: some of the queries in the XMark benchmark
improve by a factor of 300 (from 16 seconds to 45 milliseconds) to process a 10Mbyte source file.This enables documents
to be handled that are too large to hold in memory (it has been tested up to 20Gb).XQuery including support for
grouping, advanced regular expression analysis, and formatting of dates and numbers.The Saxon XSLT 1.The main purpose of the maintenance release was
to fix a problem that arises when using Saxon 6.This version of Saxon is no longer actively developed.Microsoft Java VM, support for FOP integration, and the applet interface.Saxon versions available for download is available on the
SourceForge project pages.Technical documentation (including JavaDoc specifications) is available on the
Saxonica web site.This version reflects the syntax of the final XSLT 2.Recommendations of 23 January 2007.Information, Evaluation, and Purchasing

it runs in some environments that are not supported by Saxon 6.The download includes documentation, source
code, Java executables, and sample code.Known limitations of this release are listed here.The most recent version of the Instant Saxon product.Instant Saxon was built using
the same source code as Saxon 6.Since the Microsoft Java VM is no longer a standard component of the
Windows platform, this release has outlived its usefulness, but it remains available
for download by existing users.Note that Saxon performs considerably better
using Sun JDK 1.XML Parser that was bundled with Saxon versions
up to version 7.Also available on this site is the DTDGenerator program.This was formerly
produced as a Saxon demonstration application, but has since been adapted to work as a pure
SAX application, with no dependencies on the Saxon software.Documentation for earlier releases remains present on the SourceForge web site:
6.Saxon are a British heavy metal band, formed in 1976 in Barnsley, Yorkshire.As leading lights in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal they had a brief period of UK Top 40 success in the early 1980s, and also tasted success in Europe and Japan.Until this, the band's fame had been focussed largely in Germany for many years.Saxon on tours)

3.History
Saxon began with a lineup of Peter "Biff" Byford on vocals, Paul Quinn and Graham Oliver on guitars, Steve "Ponce" Dawson on bass and drummer Pete Gill.In 1979 the band signed to the Carrere record label and released their eponymous debut album.Wheels of Steel spawned two hit singles: the title track, and the crowd favourite "747 (Strangers in the Night)".The Strong Arm of the Law album, considered by fans to be one of their best recordings, was released later that same year, and chart success continued with singles from their next release, Denim and Leather.Later legal issues with Carrere negated most if not all of the financial gains seen during their early success.An excerpt from Strong Arm of the Law 's Sixth Form Girls
Problems listening to the file?UK capitalised on this success, but Saxon were never able to break into the lucrative U.After 1983's Power and the Glory album, Saxon went in an increasingly commercial direction, in an effort to counterbalance NWOBHM music's decline.Indeed, the move did little more than alienate their core fanbase.Recently, they have returned to their less overtly commercial roots, and still have a larger following.Saxon recently did a 25th Anniversary of NWOBHM tour of Germany beginning in early March 2005.Saxon's latest studio album, entitled The Inner Sanctum, was released in Europe on March 5, 2007, and North America on April 3, seen by many critics as their best work in years.In 2007, they started a world tour in support of The Inner Sanctum.Collaboration with Harvey Goldsmith
In 2007, Saxon was the subject of an episode of Harvey Goldsmith's Get Your Act Together.Saxon's popularity had been in decline since about 1983.He went on a 6 month make over of Saxon, including their look, sound and stage set.At the end of the programme, Saxon sold out the Sheffield City Hall (over 2,000 capacity) becoming their biggest UK date in over 15 years.Since then they have gone on one of their biggest tours ever, with healthy ticket sales that were not present for years.Byford and Quinn remaining as constants.Paul Johnson, lasted two years before leaving.Nibbs Carter has filled the position ever since.Byford and his cohort Quinn and the other consisting of original Saxon members Oliver and Dawson.Byford's Saxon has been fairly stable apart from the departure of a few drummers.Following Glockler's departure, German Fritz Randow took up the position until 2004.Lionheart album consisted of Byford on vocals, guitarists Quinn and Scarrat, Carter on bass and Michael on drums.Following the rapid reunion of Stratovarius, Michael departed after only a year in the job, opening the door for Glockler to return to Saxon.Glockler and Micheal on drums, as well as former drummer Fritz Randow.In 1994, Graham Oliver and Steve Dawson, founding members of Saxon, reunited.They began under the name 'Son of a Bitch' (which had been Saxon's own name originally, before they became well known) but were often billed as Saxon on tours by promoters, though the band often didn't discourage this.The band has been known by this name ever since, and despite recording other material from 1996 onwards have always relied primarily on Saxon songs during live sets.This page was last modified 13:54, 30 December 2007.Saxon is the collective term usually used to describe the ethnically and linguistically related peoples living in the south and east of the island of Great Britain from around the early 5th century AD to the Norman conquest of 1066.They spoke closely related Germanic dialects, and they are identified by Bede as the descendants of three powerful Germanic tribes, the Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes;
