Very small. We were down to three people in Working Group teleconference

The answer is probably for people to invest in CSS, not XSL-FO, these
days.

I use XSL for transforming XML into a variety of other formats
(usually XML but sometimes plain text or CSV).

I am guessing you mean XSLT, not XSL-FO.

  Why do you say people should be investing in CSS, not XSL-FO? How is
this related to XSL?

XSL is in two parts, transformation and formatting.
XSLT is the transformation part.
XSL-FO is the formatting/styling part.

XSLT development is active and continuing.
XSL-FO development is less active.

Hope this helps,
