http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10948 Summary: [XPath21] editorial: 2.1.1 Static Context: statically known decimal formats Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLT Version: Member-only Editors Drafts Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: XPath 2.1 AssignedTo: jonathan.robie@redhat.com ReportedBy: jmdyck@ibiblio.org QAContact: public-qt-comments@w3.org [Affects XQuery11 too.] 2.1.1 Static Context Statically known decimal formats. [1] The spec is inconsistent on "decimal format" vs "decimal-format". (Also true for F+O spec.) [2] "This is the set of known decimal formats." It would be more consistent to say that it's a set of (EQName, decimal format) pairs or a mapping from EQNames to decimal formats [3] "Each format is used for serializing decimal numbers using fn:format-number()." [3a] Change "is" to "can be" (because the declaration of a format is not a guarantee that it will be used). [3b] Change "decimal numbers" to just "numbers" (because fn:format-number "can be used to format any numeric quantity", not just xs:decimals). [4] "Each format is identified by a QName, except for the default format, which has no visible name." It would be more consistent to have a separate 'default decimal format' component. [5] "Each format contains the properties described in the following paragraphs." I think it would make more sense for the description of the properties to be in section 4.10 Decimal-Format Declaration. [6] "The following attributes control the interpretation of characters in the picture string supplied to the format-number function." [6a] Change "attributes" to "properties". [6b] Change "format-number" to "<code>fn:format-number</code>". [7] "The following attributes specify characters or strings that may appear in the result of formatting the number:" Change "attributes" to "properties" again. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
