I am responding to this comment thread on behalf of the XQuery and XSL Working Groups. The WGs reviewed your comment [1] and agreed with the explanation that Michael Kay provided in [2]. The WGs were pleased to see that you responded positively to Michael's explanation in [2] in your message [3]. In you message of [3] you further asked: > Why support such inappropriate type-checking? The WGs also discussed this question and felt that this type of static type-checking is indeed useful and several WG members said that they will have implementations that will indeed implement this feature. In addition it was pointed out that since static typing was an optional feature if you feel that this form of static typing is not useful then you will not have to implement it. We would be grateful if you could confirm that this response resolves the questions you raised in your comments [1] and [3]. /paulc [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-qt-comments/2003Nov/0271.html [2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-qt-comments/2003Nov/0280.html [3] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-qt-comments/2003Nov/0282.html Paul Cotton, Microsoft Canada 17 Eleanor Drive, Nepean, Ontario K2E 6A3 Tel: (613) 225-5445 Fax: (425) 936-7329 mailto:pcotton@microsoft.com
