Presumably that's not what you really mean.

This document is uncontroversial I think.  The document is well-formed
but uses a reserved element name, which is unwise.

http://www.w3.org/XML/xml-names-19990114-errata#NE05 says:

  The prefix xmlns is used only to declare namespace bindings

(and Namespaces 1.1 says the same).  This should be changed to use "MUST".


>   * <foo xmlns='http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace'/>
>   * <foo xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/'/>

NE05 should be changed to add to disallow the use of these namespace
names as the default namespace.
