  You can make it work on Windows, and Unix by making sure your have
libxml2 and libxslt python bindings installed too and using them without
doing an exec. See http://xmlsoft.org/python.html and 
http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/python.html .

  BTW xsltproc is ported to Windows, I don't see why this code would
not work...
