Description Jerome Simeon 2006-02-23 18:21:51 UTC 
namespaceDecl-23

  The query is defining the namespace abc with URI "abc&".
  The XQuery specs indicates that URI literals are not character
  normalized:

<< The value of a URILiteral is whitespace-normalized according to the
rules for the xs:anyURI type in [XML Schema]; however, no escaping
normalization is applied. >>

  So the URI is "abc&amp;". After serialization however, the result
  should be:

  "abc&amp;amp;"

  instead of "abc&amp;" which is what is currently in the expected
  result.

  so that the document can be parsed back with the appropriate
  semantics.

This area was clarified by the WGs in
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=2462.
I believe this supports the test case as it is written.

Pleas close this bug if you agree with this response.
