Dear VOQL people,
I received several comments on our ADQL and SkyNodeInterface working drafts, and several people from JHU, CDS, ESAC discussed to revise the contents.
Now you can find revised ones:

In the ADQL document, we rewrote the document to make it much
easier to read. We "removed" the majority of "built-in function" part since
we haven't decided which functions should be used in this specification.
The part has been left as a place holder for our future work.
In the SNI doc, we added a new argument into the XMATCH function. And we also revised its wording as well. Please note that this extension means that there would be several algorithms to perform XMATCH, and it has been made under subtle compromise among various different views. It is obvious for us to work very hard on XMATCH in near future, as we agreed in the Kyoto interop meeting.
I would like to have your comments on these revisions by July 14th, and
if I find
our views have been converged, then I will post these WDs ad PRs.
Cheers,
Masatoshi
