Description Michael Kay 2015-03-09 09:32:22 UTC 
The specification of json-to-xml() says that it returns elements in the namespace http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/json but says nothing about the namespace prefix to be used on these elements.

By analogy with fn:analyze-string, the prefix should be implementation-dependent.

I think this is the implication of the current spec if we say nothing, but it's better to be explicit.
Comment 1 Michael Kay 2015-03-11 12:21:46 UTC 
This was accepted by the WG on 10 Mar 2015, and has been applied to the spec.
