Hello,

* The second paragraph after the table in section "6.2 Operators on Numeric
Values" starts with:

"If the two operands are not of the same type,subtype substitution"

A space is missing after "type,"

* Some function signatures refer to the type "xs:NCNAME", but the valid name is
"xs:NCName". It is at least these functions:

fn:prefix-from-QName($arg as xs:QName?) as xs:NCNAME? (§11.2.2)
fn:local-name-from-QName($arg as xs:QName?) as xs:NCNAME? (§11.2.3)

I don't know how widespread this error is; it could be distributed, depending on
how you build the specifications, for example.

* The XSLT implementation in "D.1.2 eg:if-absent" has an error on the second line:
<xsl:param name="node()" type="node()?"/>

The attribute "name" is wrong, "node()". Judging from the other code, it should
be "node".

(If I had no constraints, I would put all XSLT code in separate files, validate
them with a Schema, and bring in the appropriate sections with XInclude.)


Cheers,
Frans
