It wasn't meant to be copied verbatim :) "old" refers to your N
namespace and "new" refers to N+1.
If your elements weren't prefixed then you'll need to invent a prefix
mapped to the existing namespace, such as "old", and then put all
result elements in the new namespace, using:
( xmlns:old="the N namespace" defined on the root element)
<xsl:template match="old:*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name(.)}" namespace="the N+1 namespace">
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element">
</xsl:template>
You don't need the namespace attribute on xsl:element if you've
already defined the default namespace on the root element, but
personally I like it there.

Thanks David. The resulting style sheet gives an error similar to:
ERROR: 'Namespace for prefix 'new' has not been declared.'
I am assuming that I need to somehow add the 'new' namespace declaration
via 'xmlns:new ' attribute in result tree.
This is probably a dumb question but how do I replace xmlns:old
namespace declaration with xmlns:new namespace declaration?
Thanks again for your kind help.
