<!-- copy all in the xhtml namespace -->
<xsl:template match="xhtml:*">
   <xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
      <xsl:copy-of select="@*" />
      <xsl:apply-templates />
   </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

<!-- ignore all in the foo namespace -->
<!-- supposing there are no xhtml elements inside foo elements -->
<xsl:template match="foo:*" />

Cheers,
Oliver
