I don’t know if you’re in the minority or the majority. You’re
definitely in the “I’ve had this working since the previous millenium”
group, though.

There’s no reason you have to change.

That said, if you switch from the 1.0 stylesheets to the 2.0
stylesheets, you’ll find that you need to update your environment with
new tools.

If you want to do that by grabbing all the jars and installing them
locally and setting up your classpath and updating your shell scripts,
etc., by all means go for it. I’ve done it that way lots of times.
