The documentation doesnt appear to list this info. Judging from the fact that you have sequences in your data model, I'm guessing that you are supporting the Working Draft version of Xpath 2.0, but you should clarify this. Since one of the big changes in the XPath spec is the XPath datamodel, this is a really really important datum. I have no idea which version of XML Schema you are using - so please clarify that too.

Kenneth,
We support XPath 1.0 syntax and semantics. So a Sequence in XJ is roughly similar to a "NodeList" in DOM -- that is, an arbitrary order is placed on an XPath NodeSet.

The XML Schema version we support is "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" -- the May 2nd, 2001 Recommendation.

Some of this information is buried deep in your manual, but you are right in pointing out that we should be clearer about it. I'll modify the FAQ early next week to reflect
this.
Thanks
Mukund
