I think proposing the whole saxon function set might prove a bit indigestible for non-saxon implementors, in terms of pride if nothing else. Let's use it as an excellent kick-off spot, but let the exsl list be a genuine community proposal. I like Jeni's approach of defining extra functions as extension functions, so basically anyone who's gone as far as impelementing exsl:function can (I'm waving my hands in the air a bit here) somehow incorporate the standard definitions and get them more or less for free, with the option of hand-coding any that they wanted to optimise.
