I'd like to see more discussion of why this NID is needed. The draft says: Experience suggests that several URN namespace registrations have been proposed over the years, where the primary (yet only occasionally stated) purpose is to create short URIs for the registrant's XML namespaces. That's true, but one can create URIs to name one's XML namespaces in many ways already. One can use "oid" URNs, or "tag" URIs, or build HTTP URLs based on one's domain registration. The draft continues: registrant's XML namespaces. An XML namespace designer now has the option of choosing a short, memorable identifier ... I assume that means "This draft provides an XML namespace designer with the option...", even though the "now" in that sentence is ambiguous -- does it refer to the time before adoption of the draft or after? It seems that mnemonicity is a goal. But in practice, the nicely mnemonic values will be taken fairly quickly and future registrants will be restricted to non-mnemonic values -- unless some sort of de-facto grouping convention comes to be used. I've got some other issues with this draft, but they can be postponed until we resolve why the NID is needed. (They are very similar to my issues with draft-seantek-rdf-urn-00.) Dale
