Abstract
This paper will cover XQuery for Schematron (XQS) (pron. /ɛksˈkjuːz/),[27] a Schematron processor being implemented in native – and naïve – XQuery. To the author's knowledge, there are no complete implementations publicly available at this time.[28] The purpose of the work is at least two-fold: to demonstrate the utility of an XQuery query language binding for arguably the primary quality assurance technology applicable to XML, and to provide a second "reference" implementation while work on the latest revision of the ISO standard proceeds. Although not required by the standardization process, it clearly helps to be able to answer the question standards authors should consider when new features present themselves: How would you implement that?
