Hi Mike,
You're right.
I've been following this mailing list since few years now, and IMHO I'm
currently of following opinion.
1) Publishing XSLT 4.0 and XPath 4 specs candidate recommendation (CR)s
asap. Giving community one month after that to provide feedback on CRs.
After closing those feedback items, making those specs normative CRs.
2) Following steps after having normative CRs, to progress with making
those CRs to XSL 4.0 recommendations.
Regards,
Mukul
