I think that there’s nothing in VXQuery’s goals that’s conflicting
with a JSONiq addition.
And I agree that adding it would increase the usefulness of VXQuery and
- given the popularity of JSON - could also increase the interest in
VXQuery. But I’m clearly biased ;)

What do you think about JSONiq? Does it fit with VXQuery's goals?
