Hi Merlin,

on your example merlin-c14n-three.tar.gz, question on Reference Number 9 
(c14n-8.txt):

<bar:Something xml:lang="en-ie">
    <foo:Nothing xmlns="http://example.org/">
      <foo:Something xmlns="">
        <bar:Something xmlns="http://example.org/">
          <foo:Something xmlns="">
            <foo:Nothing xmlns="http://example.org/">
              <foo:Something xmlns="">
                <baz:Something xmlns="http://example.org/"></baz:Something>
              </foo:Something>
            </foo:Nothing>
          </foo:Something>
        </bar:Something>
      </foo:Something>
    </foo:Nothing>
  </bar:Something>


Where do the xmlns="" attributes come from? The document declares the 
default namespace to xmlns="http://example.org/" in the document element 
and is never changed. OK, you omit the xmlns="http://example.org/" 
namespace attribute in these elements, but does this allow to do that?

Thanks,
Christian
