Section 10 doesn't seem much of an advance on what we have today? Is this the right document to look for grouping answers? For 11.4, I can't say I understand the collation idea,a simple example might have helped. In this area, the problems associated with 'I want the next in the *sorted* order (not document order) appear not to be addressed. Unsure if xf:value-distinct does this or not, it appears to work on 'sequences' (which I guess includes node-sets?), and determines uniqueness by element content? Given an example <cat> <head>...</head> <content>... </content> <other elements .... </cat> as the 'sequence' would it sort on the concat of head, content etc, or is that what the optional 'collation' is for? All these 'sequences' (e.g. return value from match), will we have the Scheme list functions to play with them :-) Regards DaveP ************* snip here ************* - NOTICE: The information contained in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be legally privileged.
