Subject: Re: [xsl] is XSLT 2.0 implementable? (was: N : M transformation) From: Tobias Reif <tobiasreif@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 03 Feb 2003 22:48:52 +0100 |
I agree that dependency on WXS is a bad aspect, but I think it won't be required for all implementations.First news to me, how can you back-up that statement ?
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20/#issue-schema-conformance " Issue 125: schema-conformance
I can't implement a specification I don't understand.Then there is a lot of room for improvement regarding the spec.
Well that would probably lead to a complete revamp of of the structure part.
Would Relax NG in the place of WXS solve your problems?Of course not: Relax NG does not allow to identify type
I think Michael and Henry know me well enough, and that I propagated that back to them. It's also clear that I tried an implementation within libxml2 but it became quickly too painful that I focused on other targets.
I think the spec can only improve if every implementer feeds back any problems he sees, especially if they keep him from implementing the spec.I don't think I'm the only one :-)
There is also a threshold of how much feedback seems needed to clear up points of a spec. In most case a focused feedback makes sense (and I know that, I have been involved in W3C working group activities first as staff and then as external contributor since 98) and is rightly appreciated. But the Primer can't replace an authoritative spec where when you have a question reading it provide the answer, that is very hard for most of XML Schemas Structure part. Anyway I didn't want to get into this rathole, I'm just stating why I think at this point that I won't be able to implement XSLT-2.0 nor XPath-2.0 anytime soon.
