Mapping clr namespace to xaml namespace with using keyword

Question

I have used the clr-namespace token to map a xaml namespace to a clr namespace as in

xamlns:local = "clr-namespace:mycompany.myproject"

In the above example, the local is mapped to mycompany.myproject.

I have seen the use of the token using in some code.

xamlns:local = "using:mycompany.myproject"

Is there any difference in behavior when using the token using compared to clr-namespace?

In WPF, Silverlight, Windows Phone xaml we use "clr-namespace" token to map a xaml namespace. Where as in Windows Store app (winrt) we use "using" token to map a xaml namespace.
