Sigh. Sorry -- this is a little beyond the 2-week window, but the points are rather important. This document (or, rather, the current -01 version) is extremely light in the Namespace Considerations and Community Considerations sections. Namespace Considerations should have sentences that explain why no existing URN namespace is adequate, and a new formal NID should be assigned. (I can infer an answer from the text you have there, but the document really ought to be explicit). Community Considerations should make it clear why this needs to be a formal URN namespace: what does the Internet community at large gain from having this namespace registered? Who, outside the DVB immediate community, will benefit from this? Benefits can include ability to reference DVB xml fragments in standards worldwide. It doesn't have to solve world hunger ;-) but it should be clear to the reader that this is relevant beyond a closed community. Thanks, Leslie.
