New submission from Atamurad Hezretkuliyev atamy...@gmail.com:
Parsing test xmlns=''/test with minidom and converting back to string
raises an exception.
import xml.dom.minidom
xml.dom.minidom.parseString(test xmlns=''/test).toxml()
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace'
Ii am not familiar with the XML spec so I've no idea if ignoring or accepting
empty namespace is the right thing to do. If someone advices me on how it
should be handled, I'd like to write a patch.
