Description Framework 1.1 and RDF Schema. It defines a

Last Call: XQuery 3.0: An XML Query Language
23 July 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2013#entry-9895
The XML Query Working Group has published a Last Call Working
Draft of "XQuery 3.0: An XML Query Language." XML is a
versatile markup language, capable of labeling the information
content of diverse data sources including structured and
semi-structured documents, relational databases, and object
repositories. A query language that uses the structure of XML
intelligently can express queries across all these kinds of
data, whether physically stored in XML or viewed as XML via
middleware. This specification describes a query language
called XQuery, which is designed to be broadly applicable
across many types of XML data sources. Comments are welcome
through 13 August. Learn more about the Extensible Markup
Language (XML) Activity.
