XSLTPages or XRT: XML Request Transformations

XRT is new syntax for webapplications.

At the moment XRT requires mod_python (in the future it will have it's
own Apache module as well as it's own webserver).


* Preparing to install XRT *

The file:

   debian-packages

lists the debian packages you need to get XRT up and running. To make
a filesystem capable of doing XRT you can do this:

   debootstrap etch somedir
   cp debian-packages somedir/tmp
   chroot somedir
   dpkg --set-selections < /tmp/debian-packages
   apt-get dselect-upgrade


You need to copy the XRT module to /var/local or somesuch place.


* Running XRT *

Is just a matter of starting Apache with the relevant .apache-vhost
file linked into the virtual hosts to start.

Under debian you would do this like so:

  ln -s /location/of/xrt/demos/bookmark-demo/.apache-vhost /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/001-xrtbookmarkdemo



* How can you help? *

Here's a list of ways:

- make new demonstrations
- suggest new demonstrations
- clean up and prettify existing demonstrations
- hack python, perl, java or C code for the next generation of XRT
