Description
The docs are heavy on technical details, but very light on motivation and basic explanation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/urls/#url-namespaces
Apparently the decision was made here: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/10061#comment:53
A Google search for "django url namespaces" shows that I'm not the only person puzzled by this feature at first.

As explained in the triage guidelines please dont close tickets as wontfix.
This was discussed with other members of the core team and they agreed there's room for improvement.

As a reference, I'd like to point to:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2126489/anyone-knows-good-django-url-namespaces-tutorial
David Eyk gives a very clear example on how to use them and that works for me.

I don't see any problem with the docs. Maybe you missed https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/urls/#defining-url-namespaces ?
The ticket you're refering to is quite old (django 1.1 milestone), same with the questions I can find on google for "django url namespaces" (2009/2010).
I guess we can close that ticket
