In the XPath Function and Operators Working Draft of 4 April 2005, in section
"17.1.1 Casting from xs:string and xdt:untypedAtomic" is in the end of the first
paragraph found:

"The semantics of casting are identical to XML Schema validation. Is this fails,
error [err:FORG0001] is raised. Casting is permitted from xs:string and
xdt:untypedAtomic to any primitive atomic type or any atomic type derived by
restriction, except xs:QName or xs:NOTATION."

It says "Is this fails," which according to my judgement likely should read "If
this fails."


In addition, the last paragraph of the same section appears to have a period too
much:

"For xs:anyURI, the extent to which an implementation validates the lexical form
of xs:anyURI is ·implementation dependent·. ."

(whitespace between version tags I presume)
