FeedValidator does accept <kml xmlns="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.0";>
but Google still doesn't like the file after the change, but it won't say why. I downloaded a copy of the map to my own web server to look at the issue and what I find curious, and maybe it's my misunderstanding of the way GGeoXML works, is that my web server never receives a request for the data file. There's a GET request from my browser for map.html, but there is no subsequent GET request for data.xml. Since GGeoXml requires that the file be located on a publicly available server I expected to see a GET for the data file from a Google server, and there is none (a Google server did GET the file when I substituted my path for yours in the maps.google.com link previously mentioned). If a Google server is supposed to be GETting the file, and it doesn't, that would explain why none of the data in the file is added to the map.
