Media Type registration for XSLT 2, XQuery 1.0 and XQueryX 1.0


Last April I posted to these lists a draft for the media
type registrations for interchange of XQuery expressions,
XQueryX expressions and XSLT stylesheets.

There were some issues raised, which we hope we have
resolved:

(1) That each registration should mention the URI of the
    corresponding document, so that it stands alone as well
    as an appendix to the corresponding document; this has
    been done.

(2) That the security sections (particularly for XQuery) be
    expanded.  They have been expanded in XQuery and XQueryX
    based on the results of implementation experience.

We are using Bugzilla to track comments on these documents;
however, at this stage in the W3C Process, any changes will
be reflected as errata or (eventually) incorporated into any
new revision and/or future version of the respective documents.

See the individual documents and their "Status of this Document"
sections for further information on using Bugzilla to comment
on them, or respond to this message.

Re: Media Type registration for XSLT 2, XQuery 1.0 and XQueryX 1.0

In my cover letter last night I stupidly said that I was enclosing
information for twp registratoins, and then included information for
three.  OK, so I can't count to three.

The third media type enclosed, as per the Subject of the message, was
for XSLT, and was sent on behalf of the W3C XSL Working Group.

XQuery and XQueryX were developed by the XML Query Working Group,
and the two Working Groups collaborated on the shared parts of
those specifications, along with help and comments from other
Working Groups and individuals.

I hope this clears up any confusion about who is responsible for
which of the three media types.
