Stuff ...

• Here's a presentation on Implementing the XQuery grammar I delivered at Extreme Markup 2002 in Montreal. It's an introductory tutorial on using the JavaCC and JJTree parser-generator tools to implement grammars such as XPath and XQuery.

• Here's an introductory article on XQuery that I wrote for IBM's developerWorks website.

• I'm the editor of a new book on XQuery, XQuery from the Experts, just out from Addison-Wesley. The book is written by members of the W3C's Query working group, including such well-known names in the XQuery world as Don Chamberlin, Jonathan Robie, Michael Kay, and all the other stellar participants listed on the cover below. The book is available (naturally) at Amazon.

  Here's Jonathan Robie's most excellent Chapter One, XQuery: A Guided Tour, excerpted from the book.

  And here's Don Chamberlin's superlative Chapter Two, Influences on the Design of XQuery.
