xmlns:my can "point to" anything you like. The namespace name that you
associate with the 'my' prefix needs to be a URI (URL or URN) that you
have control over. For example, if you own the domain name
"magusdesigns.com" then a reasonable URI to use would be:

  "http://magusdesigns.com/namespace"

There is no need for you to put anything retrievable at the end of
that URL -- like all namespaces, it's just a unique identifier so that
the processor can work out the difference between your "my" and my
"my".

Cheers,

Jeni
