[eml-dev] eml201to210.xsl

[Margaret O'Brien]

Hi Jing -
It might be better to create a new tag for the utilities, i.e.,  
*_0_9_1. But we should find out what Metacat prefers, since this is the 
only thing (so far) checking out the eml-utilities. Since metacat-1.9.1 
is already released, it would have gotten the 0_9_0 tag. It shouldn't be 
a problem for metacat though (since it doesn't use that stylesheet). It 
would be good for us to know how metacat intends to keep up with updates 
to the Utilities.

When the production Metacats 1.9.1 have confirmed that they are 
replicating 2.1, we can go ahead and release EML. I should have time to 
check on the test docs Tuesday or Wednesday.

Thanks!
Margaret
