I have posted a patch for namespace support in http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19897
It should cover most of the issues raised http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=105289875900005&r=1&w=2 Arbitrary namespace uris are allowed, uris beginning with "ant" are reserved. ant:core is ant's namespace and the default namespace for definitions. antlib:<package name> is treated specially, when ant encounters a component (task, or type) that has a namespace uri of this form, ant will check if there is a resource of the name packege -> path/antlib.xml and if so it will load it up.
