I'm published at MSDN
Apparently at the same time my article I was talking about finally made its appearance at XML Extreme Column of MSDN. Here it is: "Producing Multiple Outputs from an XSL Transformation". It's about how to achieve multiple output XSLT in .NET. My first article, so any comments espacially critical ones will be greatly appreciated. Is it well-written or at least clear? Should MultiXmlTextWriter be developed further? I've been thinking about HTML output method, this can be done by creating HTMLTextWriter:XmlWriter, like System.Web.UI.HtmlTextWriter one, but implementing XmlWriter instead. Probably not bad idea.

digg it
redditI think adding html output would be extremely useful.

Recently I took some time measurements between different implementations of the same thing. They were written in a variety of languages -- Python, Java, C, C#, XSLT.
You'd be surprised when these results are published.

Thanks!
I'm still considering using XSLT to get HTML output. That seems to be way easy, but I'm not sure about performance, anyway it needs to be measured.
Hi Oleg,
Congratulations for your first article on MSDN and for a job well done!
I miss a comparison between your approach and the approach when the different output documents are produced from the global result using a second-step XSLT transformation.
For example, is your method consuming less memory and how much less? Is it faster and how much?
The second method I mentioned can successfully produce HTML and text documents.
