Use something like this:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
  <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

  <xsl:template match="t">
    <xsl:element name="{name()}">
      <xsl:copy-of select="namespace::*[not(. = 'b')]"/>
      <xsl:copy-of select="@* | node()"/>
    </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

When this transformation is applied on the following source.xml:

     <t xmlns:a="a" xmlns:b="b"/>

the result is:

     <t xmlns:a="a"/>

so the namespace "b" has been excluded.


Hope this helped.
