Hi,

That's because the 'datestamp' element has a namespace too, viz.  
"http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/";

So to match that element, you''l need to declare that namespace in your  
xsl.
e.g.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"  
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";  
xmlns:def="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/";>

<xsl:template match="def:datestamp">
match here
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
