Hi Jorge,
   We (that includes I think me, Jesper & Dave Carver) had done various
fixes earlier to the originally contributed PsycoPath library that Xerces
uses for its XML Schema 1.1 implementation. I can say with much
responsibility (being a previous committer to Eclipse WTP source editing,
and also as a PMC member of Xerces), that the current jar file for
PsycoPath, on Xerces SVN conforms fully to the W3C XML Schema 1.1 test
suite.

You say, '.. XPath 2 implementation reports over 800 failures in the W3C
test suite'. I'm curious what W3C XML Schema 1.1 tests, you and Sam found
that PsycoPath library used by Xerces does not pass? Our XML Schema 1.1
conformance reports are located at:
http://wiki.apache.org/xerces/xmlschema11TestSuiteReports. I believe, this
is also indirectly linked from the XML Schema 1.1 specification.
