I agree. 'MUST support' sounds good. If everyone is ok with this, we can go with 'MUST support'.

I'm ok with that. I assume that a reasonable interpretation of this
sentence is that a validator is free to make use of a 3rd party
implementation of the deref() function...

"MUST support" also sounds good.

Team,
Do you agree with Pratul's modified proposal? Please speak up if you
disagree.

The validator MUST implement the deref() XPath extension function.


------- Comment #9 from kumarp@microsoft.com  2007-11-03 20:51 ------- I
agree that a validator must implement deref() but does not have to
expose it to other programs. This was not the intention when I wrote the
proposal. I can see that it could be interpreted that way. I believe
Pratul's suggested wording from comment# 8 is more precise.

The validator MUST implement the deref() XPath extension function.

Not sure whether I'll get to more bugs before 4pm (am supposed to be in meetings all afternoon).
