Description Michael Kay 2007-05-30 12:16:16 UTC 
We currently say (in 3.14)

If the xsl:import-schema  element contains an xs:schema element, then the schema-location attribute must be absent, and the namespace attribute must either have the same value as the targetNamespace  attribute of the xs:schema element (if present), or must be absent, in which case its effective value is that of the targetNamespace attribute of the xs:schema element if present or the zero-length string otherwise.

However, the zero-length string is not a valid value of the namespace attribute. We should say that in this situation (an inline schema for the no-namespace) that the namespace attribute is treated as absent.
