Note that I said "clean up the output", but you are speaking of the 
input.  You *are* required to use a namespace in your stylesheet because 
XPath 1.0 never uses the default namespace.

But, your use of a literal result element in your stylesheet produces:

      < br xmlns:prb="www.MyBRProblem.org">

... because you haven't pruned your stylesheet tree of unwanted output 
namespaces.  (note I added a space after "<" to prevent mailers 
interpreting the HTML).

My suggestion would remove the unwanted namespace nodes from all your 
literal result elements so they don't end up in your result tree or 
serialization.

You *do* need the namespace in your stylesheet to do addressing.

I hope this helps.
