Description Michael Kay 2013-11-10 19:44:10 UTC 
The specimen implementation of the snapshot() function in the XSLT 3.0 spec requires a schema-aware processor, because of its use of validation="strip" and validation="preserve". However, the function is available and well-defined with a non-schema-aware processor.

(We might like to consider whether we could change the rules on the "validation" attribute to make it easier to write code that works both with schema-aware and non-schema-aware processors.)
Comment 1 Michael Kay 2013-11-12 09:19:00 UTC 
Withdrawing this. We have changed the rules in 3.0 so that a non-schema-aware processor treats validation=preserve and validation=lax in the same way as validation=strip.
