------- Additional Comments From jim.melton@acm.org  2005-09-29 09:36 -------
The Working Group discussed this comment at length.  Once we understood the
relationships between the XML syntax and the human-readable syntax for XQuery,
we recalled that it has always been our intent for the two syntaxes to have
equivalent semantics.  One important consequence of this is that the XQuery
static context to which you refer is exactly the same static context that an
XQueryX engine would use.  That is, the fact that a different syntax is used
does not mean that the evaluation/execution engine behaves any differently
(other than the nature of the parser, of course). 

Therefore, we conclude that no change to the XQueryX document is needed or
justifiable. 

Please let us know if you agree with this resolution of your issue, by adding a
comment to the issue record and changing the Status of the issue to Closed. Or,
if you do not agree with this resolution, please add a comment explaining why.
If you wish to appeal the WG's decision to the Director, then also change the
Status of the record to Reopened. If you wish to record your dissent, but do not
wish to appeal the decision to the Director, then change the Status of the
record to Closed. If we do not hear from you in the next two weeks, we will
assume you agree with the WG decision.
