[ebxml-msg] Re: Fw: Namespaces

[Christopher Ferris <chris.ferris@sun.com>]

All,

Please see the note from Nikola below. Apparently, OASIS
has got a URN namespace that we can use (woo hoo). We can,
and should (IMO) leverage this in our spec (and possibly
also in the CPP/A specs if appropriate.

We are currently using a uri: scheme for some of our
URIs which (upon further investigation) is inappropriate.
I think that this may be my fault (sheepish grin).

I would therefore like to recommend that we consider replacing
the "uri:www.ebxml.org/messageService" prefixed URIs in our
spec with "urn:oasis:names:tc:ebxml-msg:service:" as this URN
is a formally registered URN namespace.

Thoughts?

Cheers,

Chris
