The URN namespaces registry contains seven informal identifiers: http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-informal/urn-1 http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-informal/urn-2 http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-informal/urn-3 http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-informal/urn-4 http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-informal/urn-5 http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-informal/urn-6 http://www.iana.org/assignments/urn-informal/urn-7 As far as I can see, these informal identifiers were mostly intended for experimental use. In several cases, the registrations were incomplete, see for instance: "Registration date: TBD" "Declared registrant of the namespace: TBD" "Note to RFC editor: replace xxx with the assigned 3 numeric digit identifier." Do we know if these identifiers are in use? Is it worth the effort to clean up this part of the registry? Peter -- Peter Saint-Andre https://stpeter.im/
