Cases for extending XQuery
JCB

We are gathering use cases from the community where developers have had to extend XQuery to deliver their applications.

You are invited to describe cases where you have had to extend XQuery, which we will attempt to collate into similar categories. Once we have enough categorised evidence of similar proprietary extensions we can then consider starting a standardisation effort.
