Title : URI Design and Ownership
Author : Mark Nottingham
Filename : draft-ietf-appsawg-uri-get-off-my-lawn-04.txt
Pages : 8
Date : 2014-04-22
Abstract:
RFC3986 Section 1.1.1 defines URI syntax as "a federated and
extensible naming system wherein each scheme's specification may
further restrict the syntax and semantics of identifiers using that
scheme." In other words, the structure of a URI is defined by its
scheme. While it is common for schemes to further delegate their
substructure to the URI's owner, publishing independent standards
that mandate particular forms of URI substructure is inappropriate,
because that essentially usurps ownership. This document further
describes this problematic practice and provides some acceptable
alternatives for use in standards.
