Tim,
The Query Working Group considered this bug report on 15 April 2008. It was the
consensus of the working group that, if we were starting over to design XQuery
from scratch, we might find a better definition for error XPST0005, but the
current definition does not constitute an error that needs to be corrected by
an erratum. In general, the design for static typing in XQuery 1.0 is quite
pessimistic, and this error code represents one case in which static typing
rules might be loosened in a future version of the language. If you are
satisfied with this resolution of the issue, please mark this bug report as
"Closed."
Thanks,
--Don Chamberlin (for the Query Working Group)
