There is useful information about XML Namespaces at:

Whenever I looked into XSLT stylesheets with namespace declarations I see
ALWAYS a scheme like
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
or more general
xmlns:foo="http://www.somedomain.com/foobarlabel"
This is somehow confusing because the namespace has nothing to do with a WWW Hyperlinks/URLs.
From my point fo view it is just a tag or label which could be named
xmlns:foo="aabbccdd"
as well
Or is there somewhere a specs which requires a "http...." declaration
What is the reason why all the coders use "http...." URL like namespace names ?
