https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=20639 --- Comment #13 from Roger Costello <costello@mitre.org> --- > XPath is designed to provide XML navigation capability > to augment other things that can be provided (better) > by a host language. If we lose that focus, we lose XPath. That focus was lost long ago. See comment 5 for many examples of capabilities existing in XPath today that have nothing to do with navigating through an XML tree. Despite this (in fact, because of this), XPath is prospering. I anticipate XPath to have an increasingly dominant role due to its portability -- write an XPath program once and reuse it in XSLT, XQuery, Java, Perl, Python. That's powerful! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.Received on Friday, 11 January 2013 18:50:44 GMT
