Vojtech Janota commented on XMLBEANS-446:
-----------------------------------------

Snippet from the following spec:

   http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-names/#ns-decl

At the end of the section:

All other prefixes beginning with the three-letter sequence x, m, l, in any 
case combination, are reserved. This means that:

    *   users SHOULD NOT use them except as defined by later specifications
    *   processors MUST NOT treat them as fatal errors.

> XML Specification clearly states that when declaring namespace bindings 
> prefixes starting with "xml" are reserved and must not be used. However it 
> also states that processors must NOT treat them as fatal errors. Current 
> implementation fails to parse XML files with such prefixes:
> org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlRuntimeException: error: Prefix can't begin with XML: 
> xml2uddi_portType
>         at 
> org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.store.Locale$SaxHandler.startPrefixMapping(Locale.java:3321)
>         ...
