2. Technical Agenda

2.1. Review pull request #284: Grammar for if-then w/o else

See pull request #284. Some discussion last week.

2.2. Review pull request #304

See pull request #304. This is Mike’s PR #292 redrafted by Norm. Mike writes:

I regret that this has turned into a bit of an omnibus PR. The main changes are:

  • Fix validity issues with the function catalog and its schema (Issue 291)
  • Convert all functions to use a single signature with optional parameters (Issue 70)
  • Extend the function catalog to handle record definitions (Issue 257)
  • Fix the (trivial) bug with properties of fn:path (Issue 288)
  • Add introductory text concerning the handling of operators (Issue 35)

2.3. Review pull request #290 (function type hierarchy)

See pull request #290. This PR seems to be against an earlier draft so the diff markup is a bit odd. I believe the only intended change is the paragraph in 2.9.1 Functions.

2.4. Review pull request #286: allow child::(a|b|c)

2.5. Issue #299 (formerly #281)

We had some discussion of #281 previously, but no resolution. Awaiting more feedback from the CG in the issue.

2.6. XPath 4.0 functions

2.6.1. fn:duplicate-values

2.6.5. fn:differences

Editorially, this function is not ready for approval. We should decide if we want to pursue it, and if we do, how.

2.6.10. map:entries

2.6.14. fn:split-by-graphemes

2.6.15. fn:deep-normalize-space

2.6.16. fn:parcel, fn:unparcel, array:from-members/of, array:members/parcels

2.6.17. array:values, map:values

3. Any other business
