Comment (by nacin):

 It's a shame that wellformedweb.org is down, but a namespace URL does not
 need to resolve. It may look like a URL, but it is just a unique
 identifier of the namespace. A validating parser would benefit from URL
 resolution, but that's it.

 Not sure why we have wfw referenced in the export, as it is only used in
 feed-rss2.php for wfw:commentRss. Removing the namespace reference there
 will result in invalid XML.
