Chris,

As well, as XQuery is foreign query languge for rational databases.
But today's needs consist of merging rational and xml in one engine:
rational for structurized (and predictable) data,
xml for arbitrary (and not predictable beforehand) data.

What is alternative instead of SQL99
(http://www.wiscorp.com/sql1999_c3.zip ) ?

If data have no mixed nature.

You mess up rational paradigm (this is for data) and
upgrading of rational language.
And what is 'representation of XML in rational paradigm' ??
