Description Michael Kay 2012-07-23 12:11:12 UTC
From the XSL WG mailing list:


Just one typo in a code segment, one editorial issue and one question:

1. Under 4.6, a code segment has a typo: Expressions such as (/)
instanceof document-node(element(invoice)) also require look-ahead as
far as the start-tag of the first element.

this should be [...] (/) instance of document-node(element(invoice)) [...]

2. There are references to XDM's is-idrefs, written as is-IDREF,
is-idref, is-idrefs, same for is-id, which is written as is-ID in two
occurrences. I'm not 100% sure (my XDM knowledge is not so up-to-date),
but I believe these should be is-idrefs and is-id respectively.

3. Under 18.3, the term incrementor function is introduced. I couldn't
find a definitive reference on this term in the internet. Is it a
"proper" term? Should it be "increment function"?

Cheers,
Abel

On point 3, the only reference to the term "incrementor function" is where it is being defined. So we probably don't really need the term. We could call it the "delta function" since we then refer to it using the greek letter delta. In fact, we could call it anything we like.
