Multiple hierarchical views of data are good:- hmm, isn't that what XQuery was developed explicitly to achieve?Well that comment is a head scratcher, but never mind. I do this pretty much every day in my day job, without the merest shred of XQuery. As a matter of fact it's pretty interesting that in one of my recent projects I led development of a particularly intensive multi-hierarchical project in
pipelining code in Python (the target corpora was represented in XML). Another group re-implemented it in XQuery, for reasons I fully understand. However, after taking one look at the XQuery the greater update by other
participating groups has been through the Python code.
