Today, xqDoc announced a compatibility release for MarkLogic 3.2. There were some issues involved with browser compatibility (impacting the presentation) and a glitch with the Javascript pop-up feature used to present the code snippet of a module/function. A new version of the display scripts xqdoc-may2003-scripts-v1_3_1 has been provided for those xqDoc users that are leveraging MarkLogic 3.2. If you are leveraging MarkLogic and have previously downloaded xqdoc-may2003-scripts-v1_3 we would encourage that you upgrade to the most recent version.

The XQuery Style Conventions were officially released today by the creators of xqDoc. Earlier versions of this document were disseminated to the XQuery development community and their feedback has been incorporated into this version. This living document will be continually updated as the XQuery specification changes and as feedback is received from the XQuery development community.

xqDoc also announced updated plans to provide support for the April 2005 and September 2005 XQuery Working Drafts plus the November 2005 Candidate Recommendation. In addition a version of xqDoc is also being developed that will not require an underlying XML database repository (this will include the support for the Saxon XQuery engine). These enhancements are currently scheduled for Q1 2006.

A maintenance release of xqDoc was released to address some minor bugs in the xqDoc conversion package and the XQuery presentation scripts. In addition, support for the MarkLogic proprietary extension for the 'property' axis was added to the May 2003 xqDoc grammar.
