<span class="gmail_quote"></span>Hi Philippe,<br><br>I'm sorry for the delayed answer.<br>I tried to subscribe to the mailing list and also sent a message to it, but I got an error message that I'm not registered and that the admin of the list would decide whether to publish my message. The mailing list system does not seem to work properly. I used this email address:

I also published a bug report #75 on the galax bugzilla site:<br><a href="http://bugzilla.galaxquery.net/show_bug.cgi?id=75" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://bugzilla.galaxquery.net/show_bug.cgi?id=75
</a><br>but there still is no answer to it, although about two weeks have passed :(
<br>What is the current state of the development? How long could it approximately last until someone starts handling it?<br><br>How about the type matching function? Do I also have to somehow activate this feature as this is handled in saxon? Or is the function not available?
<br><br>Thanks in advance,<br>Vitali Gontsharuk<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">2007/6/8, Philippe Michiels <<a href="mailto:philippe.michiels@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">

Hi Vitali,<br><br>About the Galax update statement: This seems to be a bug. I cannot find<br>your email in my personal galax mailing list archive. Are you sure the<br>message went through?<br><br>You can also post this bug on Galax's bugzilla site.
