Steven: Comments?
Erik: Some of the simple ones are not so simple I believe. Like state changing events
… For sorting, it's already in XPath, so we should use that
<ebruchez_> https://
Erik: less work for us.
… ... but it needs XPath 3
Alain: Inline function?
Alain: XPath 3 has function definitions, and so do we.
Steven: So should we defer to XPath?
Erik: We should still say something.
… we have the function element, but we need to put XPath's somewhere, so we need a function element to contain it.
Steven: Sounds sensible.
<ebruchez_> <script>
Erik: Could be script type=xpath
Alain: is it XPath or XQuery?
Erik: [looks]
Alain: The prologue is also used for namespaces and global variables.

Steven: <control/> was hanging on mirroring data between the user defined control and the calling instance
… (The original definition copied the data in, and out again after)
… mirroring would mean user defined controls acted like native controls
Steven: Echo was to allow people to see what was submitted withotu having a server that echos
Erik: You need to have a somewhere.
… it can be useful, there are echo services online. Unless you have your own, it's not reliable.
… we have something in our system, with an echo: scheme
… sends body and headers
Steven: I remember the problem with that is our responsibility to define the scheme with the relevant authorities
Erik: You could use an attribute
AOB
