Hi Dennis, I don't think there is a functional problem with the duplication, although I haven't done much with client development yet. The readability, however, is an annoyance. We're trying to sell web services to a broader community, so extra namespace declarations in our output XML don't help our campaign to convince scientists that XML really isn't scary.
I haven't quite figured out the pattern of extra declarations; since I added an additional level of hierarchy to the schema, they are only appearing at the second child level: <eventFinderResponse xmlns="http://.../xsd"> <Event> <Author xmlns="http://.../xsd" > <Name></Name> <Link></Link> <Origin xmlns="http://.../xsd"> <Location> <Latitude../> <Longitude../> </Location> </Origin> </Event> </eventFinderResponse> Shall I make this a feature request?
