2. Technical Agenda

   This agenda begins with record types, proposed for the agenda some
   weeks ago, followed by a few more substantial PRs then a few small PRs.

2.1. Record types

   In [3]meeting 023, we encountered the proposal for a new pattern
   syntax, (type(T), record(N, M, N)) that allows matching of items by
   item type. This needs CG discussion.

2.2. PR #368: Issue 129 - Context item generalized to context value

   See PR [4]#368.

2.3. PR #360: Issue 314 array composition and decomposition

   See PR [5]#360

2.4. PR #320: Issue 98 - add options parameter to fn:deep-equal

   See PR [6]#320.

2.5. PR #387: Add compatibility notes for fn:namespace-uri-for-prefix

   See PR [7]#387.

2.6. PR #385: Actions QT4CG-025-07 / -08
