> I'd request that the WG resolve this anomoly. How would you suggest that we resolve it? I mentioned the two alternatives in my email: (a) don't make fn:doc() available to XSLT users (b) impose fn:document() on XQuery users Option (b) isn't really an option: XQuery users don't want the unnecessary baggage of the fn:document() function, especially as it has never been part of XPath. Option (a) creates an unnecessary incompatibility between XSLT and XQuery. This may not matter to you, but we believe it will matter to many of our users. We think it will be very common for people to use both languages as part of the same application. Michael Kay
