[Xpath-ng] Welcome

[Uche Ogbuji]

This list is friendly to all discussion of improvements and updates to
XPath.  Discussion of the W3C XPath 2.0 specs, as well as community
alternatives, and other relevant matters is welcome.

This is not the place for elementary XPath questions and the like.  For
such, please see the excellent mulberry xsl-list:

http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/

It is no secret that there has been a lot of animosity expressed against
the W#C efforts at furthering XPath.  I hope this list becomes a focus
for building things rather than tearing them down.  I personally would
like to join others to develop community XPath NG specs that may address
different technical considerations than the W3C efforts, but I hope this
list remains a nexus for discussion, proposals and (best of all) running
code from all viewpoints.

So welcome, and thanks for your interest in XPath NG.
