Hello,

I'm fairly new to this mailing list.  I've used both XIndice and qexo.  I
had some experience with SQL and XML Query so I'd like to volunteer myself
for the XQuery task.  Can some xindice developer give me some hints on where
I ought to start?  I'm not familiar with your open source development
procedure.  Thanx!

Ideally it would be nice to incorporate qexo into xindice.  But qexo is
under GPL license, not open source.  I'll email Per Bothner asking for his
permission.

I think 80% of the XQuery work will be to support XPath 2.0.  If I
understand correctly xindice curretnly delegates all XPath queries to xalan.
Any one knows if there has been any efforts from the xalan group to support
xpath 2.0?
