Then either I don't understand what you want or you want something that is not possible with XML namespaces :-) XML namespaces care for URIs, not for prefixes. You define mappings between prefixes and URIs via xmlns:prefix. The mappings are inherited from an element to all nested elements, but you can not define a mapping in an element and expect it to be applied to a sibling element. This is all handeled by the XML parser and Ant doesn't change that in any way - it just is told which URI a certain element name is part of and uses that to find the task.
