Dear James, This is a response to the following message, which you posted to the XML Query Working Group's comments list: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-query-comments/2001Jun/0016.html The mapping you refer to is clearly erroneous. Thank you for pointing it out. The intended mapping rules were: // cdata node creation [[ <![CDATA[ C1C2C3... ]]> ]]_elem ==> cdata("C1C2C3...") // nested element are mapped further [[ <X>...</X'> ]]_elem ==> [[ <X>...</X'> ]] [[ <X/> ]]_elem ==> [[ <X/> ]] The XML Query working group is currently working actively on updating and correcting the mapping rules in Section 6, so that they fully reflect XQuery 1.0 semantics. We appreciate your feedback on the XML Query specifications. Please let us know if this response is satisfactory. If not, please respond to this message, explaining your concerns.
