--- Comment #6 from Hans-Juergen Rennau <hrennau@yahoo.de> ---
(In reply to Michael Kay from comment #5)
> I've just had a request from a Saxon user which suggests an additional
> requirement: they are interested in serializing the query result (an
> arbitrary XDM value) not for human consumption, but for transmission to a
> client application that can reconstruct the XDM value from its serialized
> form. This suggests additional requirements such as including the type of an
> atomic value, not just its string value.

Incidentally, this additional requirement (as well as the need of XDM
serialization in general) has been pleaded for several years by David Lee, e.g.
on the XQuery talk list and at two Balisage conferences, alas, without
receiving any attention or response.
