Saxon availability

Available in XSLT 3.0. From Saxon 9.8, available in all editions. Implemented in Saxon-PE and Saxon-EE since Saxon 9.6. Available for all platforms.

Notes on the Saxon implementation

In Saxon 9.6 the implementation of the current-merge-group() function did not match the latest W3C specification. Instead of returning a map, it returned a sequence containing all items in the current merge group, regardless which merge source they came from.

Since Saxon 9.7, the implementation conforms with the final Recommendation.
