Some of you may be aware that the W3C specifications (source XML plus build
scripts as well as published HTML) were moved a while ago from the W3C
servers to GitHub: https://github.com/w3c/qtspecs.

There is of course no active development taking place on the specs, but I
do have a plan (somewhere on my TODO list) of one day publishing some
unofficial errata.

Today (thanks to Carine Bournez), the issue tracker has been activated on
the GitHub repository. So if you find errors in the specs, please capture
them. Don't expect much to happen when you do, but at least the issues will
be recorded if anyone ever decides to produce new versions of the specs,
and there may be scope for reaching online consensus if there are any
questions of interpretation.

There are also some open issues in the W3C Bugzilla archive, which I hope
to transfer: see
https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/buglist.cgi?product=XPath%20%2F%20XQuery%20%2F%20XSLT&component=XSLT%203.0&resolution=---
in the case of XSLT 3.0

Note also that there are some draft XSLT 3.0 errata at
https://github.com/w3c/qtspecs/blob/master/errata/xslt-30/html/xslt-30-errata.html
