That means that XML Schema and XQuery use different names for these types. I think this is a problem. We can't say how we map from the Schema 1.1 types to our data model, because we do not yet do our mapping based on XML Schema 1.1. It also makes little sense to ask XML Schema to use our namespace for these types. I think the simplest thing to do is to have XQuery adopt the XML Schema 1.1 names for these types. That would also simplify naming of types in XQuery.
