Ok, that makes a little more sense, thanks for the explanation. I think those
are the only places in the docs where those are used.
I guess I still don't understand why you don't just put
"antlib:org.apache.maven.artifact.ant" for both examples. That URI works fine
whether you use the ant lib directory method or load the tasks using a typedef.
For my own projects I normally prefer the typedef method so that you don't need
a custom ant setup, but I use "antlib:org.apache.maven.artifact.ant" for the URI.
But if you think it's more clear to have the two different URIs in the docs,
then I won't change it. I don't think it matters too much either way.

as explained in [1] or in [3], these namespaces are not only namespace
conventions, but they are 2 different ways of deploying the tasks:
- either add a typedef in each Ant build file with a reference to
maven-ant-tasks.jar: "urn:maven-artifact-ant" namespace
- or copy maven-ant-tasks.jar to Ant's lib directory, then the typedef is
automagically available: "antlib:org.apache.maven.artifact.ant" namespace
Then both need to stay in the installation doc [1]: which to use depends on
user needs.
Maven Ant Tasks unit tests in [3] need to use "urn:maven-artifact-ant" to be
able to the version being built in target/.
But IMHO, most end-users are using "antlib:org.apache.maven.artifact.ant":
copying tasks to Ant's lib directory is the easiest way to use them.
Is there really any other place in the docs where these namespaces are
referred to?

There are two different xml namespaces used in the docs and examples of the
maven ant tasks [1]. They are "urn:maven-artifact-ant" and
"antlib:org.apache.maven.artifact.ant". The second one seems to better
match the example on the ant site [2].
Anyone have preferences one way or the other? If not, I will try to
standardize the docs using "antlib:org.apache.maven.artifact.ant".
