XQuery Risk Assessment

I've been asked to make a risk assessment of becoming an early adopter of
XQuery based technologies.

I've been watching this lists for a while now and the activity seems to be
relatively low. This implies to me the risk is low and the current working
draft is pretty stable.

Can anyone provide opinions or observations?
