Hello, Reading the draft RESTXQ spec[1], I have a question about path preference. Namely, can a bare trailing slash serve as a valid path segment? I am thinking about the pattern used by some linked data services to accommodate httpRange-14[2]. For example, VIAF (Virtual International Authority File), a popular service for library data, uses a trailing slash to differentiate between the URI for a real-world object and the URI for the Web resource that represents it. So, a GET request on the URI http://viaf.org/viaf/71387829 triggers a 303 redirect to http://viaf.org/viaf/71387829/ The RESTXQ implementation in BaseX does not seem to permit this pattern at present. If I create a resource function with a path annotation that ends in a trailing slash, the GET request returns 404. Any chance this feature could be supported? :) Best regards, Tim [1] http://exquery.github.io/exquery/exquery-restxq-specification/restxq-1.0-spe...
