Hi Benito, I remember you mentioning Xidel at Balisage. I will add it to my list also.
Thanks again for all the input of open source XQuery implementations. I ended up installing BaseX this morning and have decided to use that software for the hands-on XQuery exercises that will make up half of the presentation.

As well as JSONiq. Sometimes its error checking is too weak and it evaluates stuff that is not valid XQuery Originally it was a library app, which lets you view your library account and do stuff like automatically renewing everything, before it is due. To allow everyone to add their own catalog without much effort, I implemented a language similar to XPath with some extensions. But then everyone said that is far too complicated and they won't do it. So I had mostly stopped working on that aspect and changed it to become a standard-compatible XQuery engine instead, without anything related to libraries.

I'd like to provide the attendees with a list of XQuery resources so they can set up their own XQuery programming environment at their home institutions. Open source software is usually preferred by librarians, especially for grant projects. I feel a little handicapped in this area as I've been using MarkLogic for over seven years and have not had to work with open source XQuery tools. Any recommendations on what should be on this list?
