<alain> Hello, still "Connecting..."
<ebruchez> trouble with meeting password

Steven: Thanks for that.
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xformsusers/2016May/0001.html
Erik: This is how we implement it.
Steven: Looks good.
... Nice and straightforward

Steven: It seems to have slipped through the cracks; Philip seemed to own it originally.

Steven: So we have to decide what
to do, and how to do it, and who to do it.
... we shouldn't reinvent the wheel.
Erik: We have something
similar
... I notice that XPath 3 has a transform function
<ebruchez> https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions-31/#func-transform
Erik: We should have a quick look at what they say there.
Alain: XSLTForms has quite a
basic version
... the problem with the XPath 3 function is that it uses
maps.
... so we would have to use XPath 3.0
Steven: That would be a lot of work
Erik: As much as I would like it, I'm not sure if we can make that step
Steven: Certainly not in the short term
Erik: We should compare the different versions to see what we should do
Steven: Yes, and we should be careful to allow a migration path to XPath 3 for the long term
Alain: If you look at the example, isn't that using XQuery?
<ebruchez> https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions/#func-doc
Erik: No, I don't think so, though I will check
Steven: What we really need is for someone to compare the 4 versions and describe the differences to us
<scribe> ACTION: Erik to compare the 4 different transform() functions and report [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2016/05/11-forms-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-2066 - Compare the 4 different transform() functions and report [on Erik Bruchez - due 2016-05-18].
