If you use a targetNamespace and elementFormDefault="unqualified" then 
the schema defines its root element(s) in the targetNamespace while the 
child elements are defined in no namespace:

   <xs:schema
     xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
     targetNamespace="http://myNamespace"
     elementFormDefault="unqualified">

     <xs:element name="root">
       <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
           <xs:element name="Child1" type="xs:string"/>
           <xs:element name="Child2" type="xs:string"/>
         </xs:sequence>
       </xs:complexType>
     </xs:element>

   </xs:schema>
