Just to add to the confusion, I've used both in my own documents.
I tend to use the /ns/ directory name for my general vocabularies, but where
I'm defining namespaces for a particular application purpose -- e.g. for a
JSP taglib or XSP logicsheet, then I've used the subdomain approach,
e.g. taglibs.mydomain.com, mainly to more clearly signal this purpose
using a memorable URL pointing to a browsable site for their users.
I've not noticed any real conventions beyond this. Although adding version
indicators seems to be another common usage.
Cheers,
L.
