Description Jonathan Robie 2012-07-25 16:44:50 UTC 
Are any of the functions in F&O 3.0 optional?
Comment 1 Michael Kay 2012-07-25 21:38:14 UTC 
Or perhaps more relevantly, should the F+O specification allow host languages to cherry-pick which functions they want to support? In practice host languages will probably feel entitled to do so whether we license this or not.
Comment 2 Jim Melton 2012-09-11 15:23:51 UTC 
Conformance to F&O is specified in the document defining the host language (e.g., XQuery), so it's not necessary to discuss such conformance issues in the F&O spec itself.
