For the case of a QName with a prefix, it's true that section 2 already says that it's resolved using the statically known namespaces, but most places repeat this anyway. For the case of a QName without a prefix, the section definitely needs to say. Possibilities: -- It's in the default element/type namespace. -- It's in the default function namespace. -- It's in no namespace (like variables and attributes). -- It's in a spec-defined namespace (like Option names). -- It's disallowed (like Pragma names). ==== By the way, there's also a similar sentence missing from: -- 3.10.4 "Window Clause" re the CurrentItem, PreviousItem, NextItem in WindowVars and -- 4.18 "Function Declaration" re the name of a Param Presumbly they're resolved the same as the VarName in a VarDecl, but it wouldn't hurt to say so.

All variable names in variable references should follow the same rules as a VarName in a VarDecl.
