Description Michael Dyck 2008-04-29 22:13:25 UTC 
4.8.1 FLWOR expressions / Normalization / rule 3
(Normalization of a Where Clause)

In the right-hand side, 
    if ( [[Expr1]]_Expr ) ...
should be
    if ( fn:boolean(( [[Expr1]]_Expr )) ) ...
to compute the Effective Boolean Value of the where-expression, as specified in XQuery 3.8.2 Where Clause.
Comment 1 Michael Dyck 2008-05-13 20:01:03 UTC 
At their meeting today, the WGs accepted the proposed change, so I am marking this issue resolved-fixed. Since I was the original submitter, I will also close it.

This issue has been entered as FS erratum E028, and its fix has been
