Tim,

2 questions about this:

1)  I take it you think we should use URNs, instead of HTTP URLs (as we've 
been doing), for the DSS namespace?

2)  In SAML section 7, they say:

"Where possible an existing URN is used to specify a protocol.  In the case 
of IETF protocols the URN of the most current RFC that specifies the 
protocol is used."  For example, they use "urn:ietf:rfc:3275" for 
authentications performed via XML-DSIG.

Is it your opinion that's a mistake, and *all* URIs we use should be from 
our own namespace?

Trevor
