The IESG has approved the following document: - 'A Uniform Resource Name (URN) Namespace for Examples' (draft-saintandre-urn-example-05.txt) as Best Current Practice This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Barry Leiba. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-saintandre-urn-example/ Technical Summary This document defines a Uniform Resource Name (URN) namespace identifier enabling generation of URNs that are appropriate for use in documentation, private testing, and the like. The document targets BCP, because it recommends use of these example URNs as examples in documents. Review and Consensus Although not a WG document, it has been discussed a little on the URNbis WG's mailing list (around http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/urn/current/msg01844.html). There was little feedback on the actual proposal (as opposed to philosophical discussions about what URNs are for). Personnel Julian Reschke is the document shepherd. Barry Leiba is the responsible Area Director.
