Re: namespace change, what am I missing here?

This is probably a bug.

With MSXML3, MSXML4, Saxon 6.5.2, Xalan C 1.5, .Net xslTransform (nXSLT
command-line utility), JD, and 4XSLT I get this correct result:



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss xmlns="foo" version="2.0">
  <channel>
    <title>Werblog</title>
    <link>http://werbach.com/blog/</link>
  </channel>
</rss>
