I noticed that the (very cool) program sometimes uses 'lang="en-GB"' (edit/changelog) and sometimes 'lang="en-gb"' (authors notes, description).

It is really just a minor thing, but as XSL is case-sensitive per default, it can be contraintuitive when filtering out the parts not written in the desired language.

I will step though the code and make sure I have all the paths correct one last time.

Also if anyone wants to give me translations of the following strings it would be appreciated.

I've tried Command mode window, drag and drop on the .exe and it always errors out.

Yes I have .net 1.1 installed. Win XP pro SP2 p4 3.2 etc.

I tried it with the Firefox mod the Footer Tweak mod. Just a couple small mods but both error out with some exception error.

Well, I got some exceptions each time as well, although the tool did create output nonetheless.

Question: what licence does this use and where can I find the source code?

I'd like to request that this convertor outputs a meta tag which indicates that MODX files were generated using this convertor, similar to how MOD Studio adds a "Generator" line. This would also help track bugs in the convertor if we find them in submitted MODs.
