           Summary: wd-21: Canonical representation of QName/NOTATION values
           Product: XML Schema
           Version: 1.1 only
          Platform: PC

          Priority: P2
         Component: Datatypes: XSD Part 2

The lexical representation of a QName/NOTATION value has the form "prefix:
localpart" (or "localpart"), and the value of a QName is a tuple {namespace, 
localpart}. Then what's the canonical representation of a QName/NOTATION value? 
How is the prefix (if any) picked? How is it guaranteed that the prefix is 
always bound to the desired namespace?
