[apologies for multiple postings...]

W3C's XML Query Working Group has published FIVE new drafts.

Four are the latest updates of existing drafts:
a) XML Query Use Cases
    http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlquery-use-cases
b) XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model
     http://www.w3.org/TR/query-datamodel/
c) XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language 1.0 
     http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery
d) XML Query 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Functions and Operators
     http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery-operators/

And, the fifth is a brand new one:
e) XML Path Language (XPath) 2.0
    http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath20

[XPath 2.0's drafts are in cooperation with the XSL wg]

General discussion on the drafts should be addressed to the www-ql@w3.org 
mailing list
(archives at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ql/ ).

Comments and feedback on the drafts solely addressed to the working
group should instead be sent at www-xml-query-comments@w3.org
(archives at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-query-comments/ ). 
Note you can't subscribe to this list.


Latest versions always available from the XML Query page
(http://www.w3.org/XML/Query ), 
also containing an explanation of the above mailing lists.
