Detailed comments and suggestions on the spec should go to the addresses for comments given in the specs: www-xpath-comments@xxxxxx xsl-editors@xxxxxx so that they get archived separately from general discusions of XPath/XSLT. XPath says: "Both XSLT and XPointer extend XPath by defining additional functions; some of these functions operate on the four basic types; others operate on additional data types defined by XSLT and XPointer." XSLT or XSLT should probably say something similar for extension functions.
