Details: http://www.w3.org/blog/systeam/2008/02/08/w3c_s_excessive_dtd_traffic Personally, if I had to serve this traffic, I'd put a highly- concurrent Web server (e.g., Lighttpd) in place and build a one-second + delay into serving those responses. Fine for human use, but will motivate software authors to find out why things suddenly got so slow... Beyond that, question: how many IETF specs use a namespace URI as the primary means of identifying the format/protocol? As opposed to a media type. My suspicion is that the number is fairly small. If that's the case, I wonder if there's a need for these URIs to be resolvable.
