This Saturday a very interesting mail by Rick Jellife
concerning XPath 2.0 appeared at xml-dev :
http://lists.xml.org/archives/xml-dev/200102/msg00411.html
Especially:
But the killer is #5 "Should Add Support for XML Schema: Structures."
That is the point where it requires a PSVI.
What to do? I suggest people lobby very hard that XPath 1.1 should be
first improved with all the XPath 2 features (including casting of
datatypes and regular expression) that do not require the PSVI *before*
XPath 2 is released, and that XSLT 1.2 be upgraded to support these too.
