http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5211 ------- Comment #8 from jim.melton@acm.org 2007-10-30 01:48 ------- In http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5211#c7, the question "(Is there a reason why Update and Scripting are "facilities" but Full Text isn't?)" was asked. In fact, Scripting is not a "facility", but an "extension". Documents that use the word "scripting facility" (capitalized in any manner) are incorrect. The reasons for one (Update) being a "facility", another (Scripting) an "extension", and a third (Full Text) neither is historical and nothing more. It is too late to change our minds about Full Text and Update because they have advanced to Last Call WD status. It is not too late for Scripting, but the shortnames have been approved using the sequence "xquery-sx", which would be confusing if the document name were changed to use, say, "facility".
