The issue is that you have specified the root element 'Myroot' to be in the "http://www.w3.org/2001/06/grammar"; namespace, however you haven't specified any of your other child-elements to be in this namespace. So when writing out your model, these child-elements are seen as being in no namespace and are written out as such, using xmlns="" to reset the default namespace.
The only way around is is to specifically set the namespace on all your child-elements as well. Regards.
