A lot of entries that seem to have only tengential relevance to my wuestion, some discussions about how usefully xquery can be extended for various applications, and how various (proprietary-looking) applications can be extended to do Xquery-like things. Very little information identifying specific implementatinos of Xquery that could be installed and tried out in isolation by someone just gaining familiarity with the concepts.

Oh... I did find an optimistic description of a project that was looking forward to the new standards proposals to be released soon in 2002 so that they could implement it. Are they still waiting after five years, or is the project dead?

On retrying the query after your reply, I found GCX, which seems to offer significant linguistic restrictions. It seems to have be implemented primarily to accomplish academic research on storage management. This was the most promising lead I found.

I was hoping to hear from someone that had some experience with the stuff, who might be able to advise me what actually worked.
