Description Henry Zongaro 2013-07-03 01:57:16 UTC 
The serialization namespace document[1] is not current with the latest Serialization 3.0 document.

Section 2 of the namespace document is missing the serialization parameters output:html-version and output:item-separator.

Section 3 contains a reference to the 13 December 2011 working draft of Serialization 3.0, rather than the most recent working draft.  That reference is labelled as XQueryX 3.0, and there's a statement that "[XQueryX 3.0] is the only specification that is permitted to amend this namespace."  Likely these were copy-and-paste errors.

I notice that Section 1 has the same problem - references to XQueryX 3.0 appear where there should be references to Serialization 3.0.

The non-normative references to XQuery 3.0 Requirements, XQuery 3.0 Use Cases and XQuery 3.0 are also references to older versions of those documents.

Comment 1 Jim Melton 2013-10-20 21:12:29 UTC 
Thanks for this report.  In the most recent build of the serialization namespace document [1], the serialization parameters output:html-version and output:item-separator are included in the parameters.  In addition, there are no longer references to XQueryX 3.0.

When the PR documents are published, the public version of the namespace document [2] will become correct. 

I have therefore marked this bug as RESOLVED/FIXED.  If you agree, please mark it CLOSED.

Thanks
