You would get less redundant namespace declarations if you declare them
on your xsl:stylesheet (as you showed in your original post)  but did
_not_ do
	exclude-result-prefixes="c"
If you did not use exclude-result-prefixes then the declarations would
be put on the top level element (as generated by xslt) which is the <ul>
here, and would not need to be repeated in every li.
