I'm (unintentionally) porting Saxon to .NET.
That is, I'm translating it into Eiffel for use within (and without)
Gobo (http://www.gobosoft.com) - the open-source portable Eiffel library.
Since Gobo support for Eiffel compilers includes ESI Envision product
(which compiles Eiffel code to the .NET platform), this means it will
be runnable on .NET.
