J1.7 Future Meetings

J1.7.1 QT Meeting Schedule

[V45] Joint XML Query/XSL WG meeting schedule
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xsl-query/2016Jul/0003.html

Clocks go back this weekend in Europe


J1.7.2 Future F2F Meetings

J1.7.2.1 Other future F2F meetings

(none)


J2. Documents For Review

(none)



J3. Maintenance Issues

J3.0 The XML Query WG and XSLT WG do not intend to maintains specs 
earlier than the 3.0 suite of documents; when the 3.1 suite reaches 
Recommendation, maintenance of the 3.0 documents will be terminated.

This agenda item is reserved for reporting errors and other problems 
reported against the 3.0 (later, 3.1) suite of specifications.


J3.0.1 Concerns raised by the XSLT working group in regards to potential
completion delays of XSLT 3.0 if XPath 3.0 is made obsoleted by 3.1

Status: Pending the outcome of Abel's review of 3.0 bugs/errata.
        Any change to the status of the 3.0 specs requires explicit XSL WG
        consultation. 


J3.1 Bugzilla Bugs filed against the 3.0 suite of joint XML Query WG and 
XSLT WG documents

(none)



J4. Active Specification Development


** Note: Full Text 3.1 has been removed from the WG agenda.
If, in the future, there is sufficient interest (i.e. at least two
independent participants to develop the spec and implementations),
then this can be brought back on the agenda.

J4.2.1 Bug 29918 - [FO31] map:find ordering constraint prevents streaming 
evaluation
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=29918

Status: Ready to discuss [needs Josh]

J4.2.2 Bug 29939 - [FO31] fn:transform stylesheet-base-uri options
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=29939
See proposal in comment #4

Status: Accepted Mike's comment 4
ACTION A-658-04 Mike Kay to implement comment 4 of 29939 base URI of stylesheet


J4.2.3 Bug 29940 - [FO31] fn:transform serialization parameters
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=29940
See proposal in comment #4

Status: accepted comment 4
ACTION A-658-05 Mike Kay to implement comment 4 of 29940 fn:transform serialization parameter override




J4.2.4 Bug 29951 - [FO31] fn-transform "saved"
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=29951

Status: [discussed but needs more discussion]

Tim: We had a requirement to output multiple documents in XQ 3.1.
We were going to do that with fn:put but never did,
but fn:transform can do it!

Why did we get rid of fn:put and let fn:transform do it?

E.g. you can use xslt:result-document to make multiple docs and the expression returns a list of URIs to XQuery.

Mike Kay: this is an enormously useful facility.

The real danger is that the semantics aren't well-defined, more than
the implementation difficulty.

Liam: I think fn:put was copied into XQuery 3.1

The WG finds
https://www.w3.org/XML/Group/qtspecs/specifications/xquery-31/html/xquery-31.html#id-fnput-feature
it's a normative reference to XQuery Update

Could we make it a wrapper around fn:transform()

Shouldn't it be in XQuery and not XPath?

Tim would like to hear from Josh about fn:transform writing to resources.
If it stays in, we need to say what happens if you repeatedly use
fn:transform() to create the same URI multiple times -- fn:put() makes
an error and in XSLT it's an error, but here it'd be hard to enforce if
the XSLT processor is external.

Postponed until we have both Josh and Jonathan.

See also bug 29959 on fn:put()



J4.3 Serialization 3.1 (Michael Sperberg-McQueen, Andy)

J4.3.0 Internal working draft

J4.6.2 Status of 3.1 tests results

Status: Currently three implementers submitted results

https://dev.w3.org/2011/QT3-test-suite/ReportingResults31/report.html

The autogenerated F&O tests are new, so the report doesn't reflect
people running them.


J5. Progression of Work

J5.1 XSLT 3.0, XQuery 3.1, XQueryX 3.1, XPath 3.1, XDM 3.1, F&O 3.1, 
Serialization 3.1

* Potential coordination of dates with XSLT 3.0


J5.1.2 Dependencies inhibiting progression

* Sufficient implementation experience and reports thereof

* Detailed review of specifications by WG

in XSLT. Carine is looking at that.

I18N review: 



J5.2 Update 3.0

J5.2.1 Current Status

* In Last Call Working Draft

At XML Prague, Liam talked to a few people about XQuery Update but found 
no great enthusiasm for doing the work.  We cannot progress without plans 
for a test suite and potential implementers.  The WG needs to decide what 
to do with this spec.

Status: Ready to discuss

J6. Any other business

J6.1 Consideration of future work

J6.1.1 QT 3.2

The WGs decided that we will finish the 3.1 documents presently under way,
but undertake no new work. Maintenance work should be planned upon for a
period of time after finishing the specifications. 


J6.1.2 FT 3.1

Currently inadequate interest and resources
