Hi Boris, I have just read your answer [1] to Michael Sperberg-McQueen's comments [2] on the public comment mailing list. Althought, for the most part, I agree with your response to the namespace issue, I think that, when "fn" prefix is used in the context of XQuery, we should use the exact same URI defined in XPath/XQuery functions and operators spec [3]. In an XQuery context, function names are identified by QNames, not URIs. An example can be found in section 5.3.1 : declare function rtfn:text-length($arg as rdf:text?) as xs:integer{ return fn:string-length(rtfn:string-from-text($arg)) } This namespace issue could be addressed by defining two prefixes: fnr with a "#" at the end, and fn exactly as it appears in XPath/XQuery functions and operators spec, which will only be used in an XQuery context. Best regards, Achille.
