           Summary: xsi namespace prefix is said to be predeclared and bound
                    to fixed namespace URIs in one section but not in
                    another

            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

In "section 2 Basics" of XQuery 1.0: An XML Query Language 3 November 2005
spec, xml, xs, xsi, fn, xdt and local "namespace prefixes are predeclared by
XQuery and bound to fixed namespace URIs."

Yet, in "section 3.7.4 In-scope Namespaces of a Constructed Element", "the
validator will be unable to interpret the namespace prefix xs because it is has
no namespace binding." in the example provided.

Please clarify.

Thanks,
