In the early days of HTML different groups and companies
added new elements and attributes to HTML at will. This
threatened to cause a chaos of different non-interoperable
versions of HTML. XML (the X stands for Extensible) allows
anyone to use elements and elements from different
languages, but for a browser or other user agent to know
which element belongs to which language, you have to tell
it. The namespace declarations do just that.
