XQueryX has a xqx:boundarySpaceDecl element that allows the specification of strip or preserve. However, as currently defined it does not apply to whitespace in the XQueryX document, only to whitespace in the generated XQuery file. The normative stylesheet never generates any boundary space, so xqx:boundarySpaceDecl is a no-op: the setting can be changed from preserve to strip without making any difference. As such it should be removed from XQueryX. David
