Stripping unused nmespaces

> Hi list,
>
> after processing a document with XSLT, I still have all of it's namespace
> declarations hanging around in the transformed document. Those are unnecessary
> and unused though, so I'd like to strip them. Is there a way to automatically
> strip all unused namespaces?
> If not, I could also live with a manual way to do that. I through that maybe
> the qname-converter I found in the epilogue XPL might be useful, but there
> seems to be no documentation for it. Could anyone help?

> Thanks a lot,
