--- Comment #3 from Jonathan Robie <jonathan.robie@gmail.com> ---
We agreed to:

* add map:size()
* rename map:for-each-entry to map:for-each, array:for-each-member to
array:for-each
* add array:get() and keep map:get()

We decided to keep the following distinction, since maps combine without order,
and joining arrays is concatenation, analogous to string concatenation

* map:merge vs. array:join

We decided to keep the following because it has long been part of XSLT:

* kill map:entry()

XQuery has agreed to the following change, not yet agreed to by XSLT:

* map:for-each-entry, array:for-each-member
