Description Adam Retter 2014-06-10 16:26:46 UTC 
I think the code for the example of generating namespace nodes in `Section 2 - Basics` of the XQuery 3.0 Recommendation may be incorrect. The current document reads:

in-scope-prefixes($e) ! namespace {namespace-uri-for-prefix($e,.)} {.}

It appears that the arguments to namespace-uri-for-prefix may be back-to-front and also the arguments to the computed namespace constructor are back-to-front. I think the code should instead read:

in-scope-prefixes($e) ! namespace {.} {namespace-uri-for-prefix(., $e)}

Done in the XQuery 3.1 draft.

This is editorial because it is an example
Comment 3 Andrew Coleman 2015-07-15 14:55:20 UTC 
This has been fixed in XQuery 3.1
The WG has decided at the F2F on 2015-07-15 that this will not be fixed in XQuery 3.0
