http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14995 --- Comment #1 from Michael Kay <mike@saxonica.com> 2011-11-29 18:26:45 UTC --- For format-date() etc I think it is correct, but for reasons that are difficult to defend. In hte case of format-date(), etc, the two-argument forms of these functions depend on the default language, calendar, etc, but this dependency is described in the spec as "implementation-defined" behaviour rather than "context-dependent" behaviour. If we made default language and calendar properties of the dynamic context, then the functions would become context-dependent. Which would have the unfortunate consequence that you wouldn't be able to partially apply them. For fn:serialize(), I think the spec appears to be wrong: I can't see any reason why the single-argument function is described as context-dependent (though of course the result is in many ways implementation-dependent...) -- 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.Received on Tuesday, 29 November 2011 18:26:51 UTC
