The IESG has approved the following document: - 'The "info" URI Scheme for Information Assets with Identifiers in Public Namespaces ' <draft-vandesompel-info-uri-04.txt> as an Informational RFC This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Ted Hardie. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-vandesompel-info-uri-04.txt Technical Summary This document defines the "info" Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) scheme for information assets that have identifiers in public namespaces but are not otherwise part of the URI allocation. By information asset this document intends any information construct that has identity within a public namespace. Working Group Summary This work is the produce of an individual submitter, but was discussed on the URI mailing list and extensively with those familiar with the URN system. There was significant dissent, but the discussion concluded that the new approach to URI scheme registration supported this use.
