Take a look at my XML::Saxon::XSLT2, which provides XSLT 2.0 via Inline::Java and Saxon. It's not pretty; it's not fast; but it mostly works. XPath 2.0 within an XSLT transformation should work but doesn't handle XPath outside a transformation. (Patches for that would be gratefully received.)	[reply]

There is practically no software that implements xpath2. Even saxon, a java library, only supports the basic spec. If the query from the root post is representative, you'll probably like xsh, the xml editing shell	[reply]
