The ability to define extension functions has worked well for XPath; we commend this model to you. 18343 1 holstege 2008-01-15 22:28:23 +0000 WG considered this comment at October 2007 F2F and agreed to attempt to draft something in this area. 23533 2 holstege 2009-02-06 17:45:07 +0000 Fixed in Last Call draft http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-xmlschema-ref-20081117/
