Yes, can be done, but it may be easier to pass it in as a parameter to 
the stylesheet?

If you want to modify the existing code it gets more complex, simply
because it's on the title page?

Since you've done it, you know which stylesheet is used for the 
titlepage generation? Not meant for modification is it, being 
auto-generated.

You'll have to modify that to use the document('pom.xml')/ xpath to the 
version, after defining the namespace of course.
