W3C - Differences between XPL and XProc

Julien Lamandé
Hi everyone,

I am really a new user of Orbeon which seems to be an impressive solution. Congratulations for the work, I will give you some feedback really soon on my tests of integration / development or will have (surely soon :-) ) many questions to post to this mailing list :-D

I found a new Working Draft (01/05/2010) on the W3C called XProc or "An XML pipeline language".
So I ask to you, experts, what are the main differences between your XPL submission and this XProc ?
What is the status of the XPL submission ?

Thanks for your answers.

Julien,

We developed and implemented XPL many years ago, we joined the XProc  
working group as it got created, and we are fully behind XProc. In  
many ways you could look at XProc as an XPL++. However, even if, like  
I said, we are behind XProc, at this point only XPL is implemented in  
Orbeon Forms. We expect that, in time, Orbeon Forms will ship with an  
XProc implementation but as our focus is very much on XForms, I don't  
expect this to happen in the near future.

Alex
