I really want to start developing in xslt 2.0 but I have been hearing that xslt 2.0 is not supported in browsers yet. Is there an expected date that xslt 2.0 will be done and when will it be supported in browsers?

A: 

In my opinion, XSLT 2.0 is already finsihed:

Recommondation of w3c

But I'm really unshure, whether it's already supported.

Edit:

Wikipedia says:

XSLT is developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The most recent version is XSLT 2.0[4], which reached W3C recommendation status on 23 January 2007. As of 2010, however, XSLT 1.0[5] is still widely used, as there are no products that support XSLT 2.0 running in the browser, nor on some important server environments such as LAMP.

A: 

XSLT and XPath 2.0 are more than three years old by now, so "they are done". There are various implementations. As for support in browsers, that is lacking and I have not heard that any of the major browser implementers are planning to support it. So doing XSLT 2.0 is certainly possible, client-side XSLT 2.0 is not possible.
