You mean for the document that Roger posted?

That's an odd definition of "namespace node," to my mind. You're
asserting that each element node has three namespace "nodes" associated
with it? I would have thought that the only "nodes" were the
declarations. So I could see arguments for two, three, or nine such
nodes (variation depending upon how one handled the implicit xml
namespace declaration).
If namespaces-in-scope manifest as "nodes," do other scoped
abstractions (like xml:lang) do the same?
