[xquery-talk] restxq status

[e-letter]

Readers,

Having decided to use basex as an xml database, encountered an
unofficial draft 'restxq'
(http://exquery.github.io/exquery/exquery-restxq-specification/restxq-1.0-specification.html).
According to this document, there is no facility within xquery to use
it on a web server to process requests to and from a web browser
client. This is surprising; is it true?

What is the long term future of restxq, from the perspective of
learning its language?
