Description Tim Mills 2012-09-27 08:32:43 UTC 
The specification states

"Annotations are (QName, value) pairs. If the EQName of the annotation is a lexical QName, the prefix of the QName is resolved using the statically known namespaces; if no prefix is present, the name is in the http://www.w3.org/2012/xquery namespace."

and goes on to state

" it is an error for users to create annotations in the following reserved namespaces [err:XQST0045]: .... http://www.w3.org/2012/xquery"

Firstly, it's not clear what "creating" an annotation means.  I suspect it means "specify".

Secondly, %public and %private are annotations in this reserved namespace.  Presumably the specification should state that annotations defined in the http://www.w3.org/2012/xquery namespace may be specified when they are defined in the XQuery/XPath family of specifications.

The appendix entry for error code XQST0045 would have to be amended accordingly.

Sorry, this appears to be a duplicate of an earlier bug.  However, its resolution has yet to appear in the latest draft.
