[oXygen-user] Do I need a namespace declaration in dita root elements?

[Frank Dissinger]

Hi all,


I am cleaning up DITA files created with FrameMaker. FrameMaker has 
added a lot of unnecessary attributes, for example.


Among others, FM has added an *xmlns:ditaarch* attribute to every 
top-level dita element such as concept, task or reference. Example:


<concept id="id187JBI00EHS" xml:lang="en-US" 
*xmlns:ditaarch="http://dita.oasis-open.org/architecture/2005/"*>


Can I safely remove this attribute or is it required?


Regards,

Frank
