Description Joe Wicentowski 2017-01-14 05:58:16 UTC 
I noticed when reviewing https://www.w3.org/XML/Group/qtspecs/specifications/xpath-functions-31/src/function-catalog.xml that about half of the functions in the fn namespace (79) have a @prefix="fn" attribute, whereas the other half (76) have no such prefix. 

For example:

    <fos:function name="node-name">

But:

    <fos:function name="nilled" prefix="fn">

I would propose unifying the markup and giving all functions a @prefix attribute.

I have made the suggested change.
