from XProc: W3C Recommendation / p:xquery

The p:xquery step applies an [XQuery 1.0] query

can I use xproc with XQuery 3.1?

Yes, you can use it. New XQuery implementation on top of MarkLogic, but eXist accept just old implementation. XProc

I think the XProc spec mentions [XQuery 1.0] simply because there was no XQuery 3.x at the time when the XProc 1.0 came out. (The same applies to the p:xslt step and support for XSLT 3.0.) It is difficult to claim support for future versions of specifications without knowing what they will look like and what impact they may have.

Having said that, however, I think XProc implementers take a pragmatic approach and usually support the latest versions of the specifications. For instance, Calumet with the xDB plug-in supports whatever XQuery version that xDB supports (3.1 as of xDB version 11).
