Hi All,

I have been looking over various web pages about XQuery in light of the 
recent decision to use XQuery in the SEEK ecogrid. An interesting 
document that compares XQuery and XSLT can be found at

http://www.xmlportfolio.com/xquery.html

The examples are somewhat out-of-date, but they are interesting because 
they show how XQuery statements can be implemented in XPath/XSLT. There 
may be some ideas here about how we might implement a subset of XQuery 
while waiting for full-featured XQuery engines.

Dan
