You could use any of the following for the XML schema namespace : 

<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">              or 

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">        or 

<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> 


Within the <schema> element you can specify how elements should be qualified: elementFormDefault and attributeFormDefault 

The elementFormDefault and attributeFormDefault attributes enable you to control the default qualification form for elements and attributes.
The default value is unqualified.
