I agree that the selectors draft should say more than it does about this point. I propose the following: 1. We add a new section with the following text (or restructure section 11 a little to accomodate it): The language using selectors should define what namespace prefixes are <dfn>declared</dfn> when processing a selector. If it does not, then no prefixes are declared. (I chose "should" over "may", but I don't feel strongly about it.) 2. [Optionally] We hyperlink the relevant occurences of declare(d) in 6.1.1, 6.2, 6.2.1, 6.3.3, 11, and 13 to this definition. 3. We remove the thrice-repeated text: The mechanism for declaring a namespace prefix is left up to the language implementing Selectors. In CSS, such a mechanism is defined in the General Syntax module. which seems to have been a concern in i18n's comment 3. Would this satisfy your concerns? -David -- L.
