> Have you ever met a single non-programmer who successfully picked up XSLT of their own volition and used it productively?

Admittedly this was 20ish years ago, but I used to teach the business analysts XSLT so they could create/edit/format their own reports.

At the time Crystal Reports had become crazy expensive so I developed a system that would send the data to the browser as XML and then an XSLT to format the report. It provided basic interactivity and could be edited by people other than me. Also, if I remember, at the time it only worked in IE because it was the only browser with the transform function.
