Further improve XDM, XPath; achieve v3.1 compliance.
Add remaining v3.0 features to the XSLT engine.
NB. We're picking the low-hanging fruit first. So major, fundamental features of the languages are being implemented to begin with. The fine detail will be added later.
Although the eventual desire is to implement all of XSLT v3.0 functionality, some more advanced features will be implemented sooner rather than later.
No, pronounced X-rust! You can't just make up pronunciation as you please. If you want people to call it that, you should have named it "Crust" in the first place. This kind of thing really grinds my gear!
"In Modern Greek, it has two distinct pronunciations: In front of high or front vowels (/e/ or /i/) it is pronounced as a voiceless palatal fricative [ç], as in German ich or like some pronunciations of "h" in English words like hew and human. In front of low or back vowels (/a/, /o/ or /u/) and consonants, it is pronounced as a voiceless velar fricative ([x]), as in German ach or Spanish j. This distinction corresponds to the ich-Laut and ach-Laut of German."
I think it is somewhat ironic that you try to make a point that Chemie is an exception, when it is exactly the sort of example the claim is made from.
Ich and Chemie are pretty similarly pronounced (some people say either with a harder k sound, ik, "kehmee").
Chemie also derives from the Greek χύμεία, so it contains the Chi to make the comparison.
A similar case can also be made for Jesus Christus,
I certainly think Christus' pronunciation starts like crust.
And hey, if you derive the Greek root for it, you get Χριστός, which starts with Chi again.
I think a better case can be made just arguing against mixing alphabets like this.
Exactly it still isn't pronounced crust. And it makes matters worse. Why would you name something in a way, that possibly only the Greek can write on their keyboard?
