[xsl] Re: XProc or not XProc?
I'm sorry if this post opens a new thread, as I'm answering to my original
post, which probably have no reference id assigned by a server.
To clarify my position, I shall ask another question:
Why xslt is not a ground for XProc?
In my opinion it is a natural sequence of events:
a demand of pipelining, error handling, and so on, is appearing;
to answer the the demand people design extensions to xslt (functions and
instructions);
these extensions are discussed and standardized;
XProc is appearing as something based on xslt.
Is XProc so really required?
Why should XProc be designed rather than extending (providing new api for)
xslt/xquery to perform pipeline processing?
Are xslt/xquery less declarative than XProc?
I wouldn't probably asked such questions if XProc were already well
established with implementations available.
