Subject: Is this the best way to emit one line per occurrence of an xpath?

I had to write a simple stylesheet that prints out in text form one line
of text for every occurrence of a particular xpath in an input xml file.
I think I got it working, but I just wanted to ask for a critique of
this, to see if there are different ways of doing this.
The following is what I have so far:
--------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates
select="/beans/bean[@singleton!='false']/@class"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="@class">
<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/><xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
--------------------------
This produces output like this:
--------------------------
org.apache.commons.chain.impl.ChainBase
com.wamu.stuff.Gork
com.wamu.foo.Bar
com.wamu.uia.framework.AdapterController
com.wamu.uia.adapter.HttpClientAdapter
--------------------------
Again, this is exactly what I want, I was just wondering about
alternatives for doing the same thing.
