And your conclusion is?

I think that if you actually measure the size of the languages by number
of productions, operators, elements, attributes, etc, then you find
XPath has grown by about 70% and XSLT by around 40% - which is an annual
growth rate of about 10-15%. The rest of the growth in the document
sizes represents more thorough specification of each language feature.
