W3C's XML Query and XSL Working Groups have published today (August 16)
new updated drafts of the following specifications:

XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model
  available at http://www.w3.org/TR/query-datamodel/

XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Formal Semantics

General discussion on the drafts can be done in the
www-ql@w3.org mailing list
(archives at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ql/ ).

Comments and feedback on the drafts solely addressed to the working
groups should instead be sent at public-qt-comments@w3.org
(archives at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-query-comments/ ).
Note you can't subscribe to this list, as it's just used one-way to
send comments and issues (so, it is not a discussion forum, you can
use www-ql@w3.org for that).

Patent disclosures relevant to the specifications produced by the XML-Query working group can be found on the XML Query Working Group's patent disclosure page at
http://www.w3.org/2002/08/xmlquery-IPR-statements
Specifications that are joint work with the XSL working group have also the additional patent disclosures provided by the XSL wg at
http://www.w3.org/Style/XSL/Disclosures .

Latest versions and news always available from the XML Query page
(http://www.w3.org/XML/Query ).
