The XQuery type system is based on W3C XML Schema. To claim otherwise implies you haven't read the document. Besides the fact that it says so explicitly[0], in section 3 entitled 'The XQuery Type System' where it states "The XQuery type system is based on XML Schema. XML Schema defines a notion of validation for XML documents." But even without that statement one stumbles over XML Schema all through the formal semantics document especially in sections 2.3.*, 3.1.1, and 3.5.* [0] http://www.w3.org/TR/query-semantics/#sec_typesystem -- PITHY WORDS OF WISDOM No matter how long or how hard you shop for an item, after you've bought it, it will be on sale somewhere cheaper.
