Forgot about them. Both XPath and XQuery are excellent technologies and a probably the best thing about XML in my experience with it. I highly recommend everyone concerned with XML check them out if they havent already. I never seem to see much mention of them around XML discussions.

Which is a shame since I've been banging my head against a particular set of problems for a while with XML, and XQuery nicely resolves that, and I think it's easier to use than SQL for the most part.
Ironically probably the most popular application of XPath in the real world is jQuery selectors! Although I don't know whether that weakens or strengthens the case for JSON...
