Re: Question about pxp:zip

To be fair, it is usable with v1 and Calabash's XProc extension. For example we use it to create zipped EPUBs with no issue whatsoever.

It's true that XProc V2 will improve and clarify some aspects, but you certainly don't have to wait for it ;)

So according to the documentation inhttp://exproc.org/proposed/steps/other.html#zip I need to supply these as a sequence on the source port of the pxp:zip step and use a zip-manifest that refers to the base-uri's of these documents and tells pxp:zip where to put them in the zip file.
