Please read the link which you posted.  Quoting the second paragraph, second sentence:

"Default namespace declarations do not apply directly to attribute names;"

and from the third paragraph, third sentence:

"The namespace name for an unprefixed attribute name always has no value."

Therefore minidom *is* conformant by having None as the namespace-uri for unprefixed attribute names.
