Hi all,
sorry for the small OT but this sounds really interesting:

Another reason why I should have been there ... :-(.
Anyone from the BaseX community planning to look into it?
Ciao,

Well, I looked at it for a bit when Norm demonstrated his XProc "dialect" as he called it on his laptop at XML Amsterdam. Looked really good.
I think this is a good thing. I always found XProc a fantastic idea but never got into it. Tried some simple things but found it too much work and didn't wrap my head around it enough. It just didn't gel. The XML is not helping in the case of XProc. I already went through something like this going from Ant to Gradle where you can write your builds in Groovy. Maybe XProc is on the same route and it becames a library of functions that we can put together using XQuery.
Definitely going to look into it again.
Cheers,

I hope not too off-topic; maybe I should have posted about it here too.
Thanks!
