After a much-needed break from xml-dev, I peeked back in to see my
favorite topic being discussed (you can laugh; that was a joke). I had
gotten tired of arguing about whether node-sets are ordered (they're not),
so in January I wrote up an explanation/tutorial about the forward/reverse
distinction in XPath 1.0. In case anyone is still scratching their head,
maybe this will prove helpful:
