Stefan Hagen commented on CSAF-19:
----------------------------------

Couldn't we express our namespace as not URN? In my experience the automatic future routing promises of URNs rarely became fulfilled (compared to URL et al.) and I personally would always prefer a "de-refernce able" URL so the implementers and operators can once download everything, validate against their policies, and refer to these schema facts for further operation.

Deeplink: http://docs.oasis-open.org/specGuidelines/ndr/namingDirectives.html#xml-namespaces for section inside relevant OASIS documentation. For motivation and how-to info I suggest we take a look at http://docs.oasis-open.org/specGuidelines/ndr/namingDirectives.html - "OASIS Naming Directives, September 17, 2016, Version 1.4 (latest)" before deciding on settling on URN or URI ...

For historical reasons maybe some info / motivations are still valuable in the archived "OASIS Naming Guidelines Part 1: Filenames, URIs, Namespaces" at http://docs.oasis-open.org/specGuidelines/namingGuidelines/resourceNaming.html

The RFC that lead to the specific OASIS namespace URN's is RFC 3121 - "A URN Namespace for OASIS" from 15 years ago (e.g. at https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3121)
