RE: [xsl] Locating Things Relative to Location of Style Sheet

[DPawson@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Either way, surely the first step is to make the WG aware of the concerns?
Rather than just say 'we don't like it', I'd far rather make a proposal
of a way to address this concern.

Assuming there are (as Mike has pointed out) a few XML-Q
people who want all this additional material in XPATH, so how could we
satisfy their needs without the negative impact on the XSLT world?

I'd suggest a partitioning of xpath to form a hierarchy of recs,
which in one direction meet the query needs, in another meet the
XSLT community needs; with <em>only</em> those parts which are
genuinely common in a common leg.

I really can't say if this is feasible, but its the only way forward
I can see which might meet the needs of both community of users.

Alternatives anyone?
