[XQuery] LQ-XQ-01 - human readable from Liam Quin on 2004-03-04 (public-qt-comments@w3.org from March 2004)
[XQuery] LQ-XQ-01 - human readable

[minor editorial]
In section 1. Introduction, 2nd paragraph, we have,
The Query Working Group has identified a requirement for both a
human-readable query syntax and an XML-based query syntax
In fact the Requirements document does not talk about a
"human-readable" syntax, and does not discuss a concept that the
non-XML syntax is intended for human consumption and the XML syntax
is intended only for machine use (not human readable).
There are people who consider that at least some XML documents - for
example, XSLT stylesheets - can be read by humans.
I suggest using the terms "XML syntax" and "non-XML syntax".
Thanks,
Liam
