RE: [xml-dev] Partyin' like it's 1999
Hi, Joshua.
 
  Thanks for your clarification.  But then, how an XML Namespaces-aware parser should process (considered) the QName, if is not produced by concatenation of the URI and the local part?
 
  According to the XML Namespace spec, in the section 3 (Qualified Names): "Note that the prefix functions only as a placeholder for a namespace name. Applications should use the namespace name, not the prefix, in constructing names whose scope extends beyond the containing document."
 
  I understand that the namespace name is the URI, right? ... so, I guess that the parser must identify a QName as:  URI + "local_part", i. e., by concatenation.
 
Regards,
 
Sergio Rodríguez.
