Any movement on what? Quite a few topics have been discussed in this thread.
Currently, the
mysql and
mysqldump clients support the
--xml option for per-connection XML output. I'm not aware of any capability being added for per-query XML output. Does someone know of, or has someone filed a feature request for this?
LOAD XML INFILE is supported in MySQL 6.0, as discussed
here and
here.
I believe someone is also submitting some XPath function patches, and Alexandr Barkov is working on some XML-related bugfixes. The patches (assuming they're accepted) probably won't be in 5.1 but rather in 6.0; I think Bar's fixes will go into the 5.1 tree when they're ready.
