[jdom-interest] moving namespaces up

[elephantwalker]

I saw a discussion earlier that the beta 7 would be coming out soon.

Is the latest source a close fascimile of the beta 7?  I'm going to beat on
it a little, I just want to make sure I'm getting the candidate beta 7.

Regards,

the elephantwalker

As I told Vladimir in private discussion a minute ago, the
setName/setNamespace methods were introduced post beta6.
