Saxon 7.8 is work-in-progress, it couldn't claim conformance in its current state. # # I refer to the annotating of attributes as xs:IDREF, which is # specifically disallowed by the standard for Basic XSLT processors, and # seems to make it impossible for a Basic XSLT processor to be fully # backwards compatible with XSLT 1.0. # # Which I find objectionable. We've got public comments on the handling of DTD types which we need to address. However, I don't see the problem with xs:IDREF: there was nothing in XSLT 1.0 that handled an IDREF specially, only an ID. Could you clarify? And don't hesitate to ask for clarifications on the public list. The WGs are now entitled to ignore the comments, but are unlikely to do so if they make sense.
