I used to maintain that information at the public XQuery page, http://www.w3.org/XML/Query/ (I suppose I could have separated it out onto an XPath page, but Massimo marchiori had already started the XPath info there and it had a sort of mmomentum). When I got to 50 implementations of XQuery 1 it was too much work to keep it up to date. I do still update it at times. I still occasionally find implementations -- I think most recently I head about Skytide's analytical platform using XQuery inside, although I think it's actually using the implementation in DB2. We do have test results for XQuery 3.0 and XPath 3.0 up at http://dev.w3.org/2011/QT3-test-suite/ReportingResults/ The 3.1 results aren't in yet -- Candidate Recomendation is a call for implementations. Probably we should review the public test suite pages and update them; that might be on the agenda for the upcoming face-to- face meeting later this month. Liam
