Description John Snelson 2006-02-03 17:19:16 UTC 
It is desirable to have a standard way to add and remove documents from a
collection - since there isn't currently a way to do this if you aren't using
SQL/XML. In my opinion, this is a major ommission from the current XQuery Update
specification. A lot of people out there are aiming to use XQuery as their only
database manipulation language.
Comment 1 Jim Melton 2006-08-24 22:29:49 UTC 
This will not be included in version 1.0 of the XQuery Update Facility.  It may be reconsidered for some future version of the Update Facility.
Comment 2 John Snelson 2007-01-30 20:51:01 UTC 
I think fn:put() addresses this in the current XQuery Update specification. Is this sufficient?
