I think that the namespace URI referred to by the implements-prefix
attribute is the implementation independent URI.  Several xsl:script
elements can share the same prefix/URI but have different languages.

Presumably the namespace URI referred to by the implements-prefix
attribute would resolve to an implementation-independent functional
description of the functions in that module/namespace in the same way
that the namespace URI used for a particular XML vocabulary would
resolve to some kind of description of the vocabulary (i.e. you might
get something human-readable, you might get something
machine-readable, you might not get anything at all).

Cheers,

Jeni
