Neither. Attribute names with colons belong to the namespace specified
by their prefix, but attribute names without colons are not subject
to namespace rules: they just have to be unique within their element
type, and have no connection to other element types or namespaces at all.

The same answer. There is no such thing as a default namespace for
attributes, because unprefixed attributes (unlike unprefixed elements)
can never belong to the namespace system.
