It's the same dilemma as with XML namespaces: if it's a URI, folks tend to assume the schema will actually appear at that network location, and if it's a URN it begs the question of whether the referenced document is published online and if so, where. Seems to me like we could consider a mandatory valueList URN and a optional valueListLocation URI. > Q2: Do we want to use a hybrid system where we identify the > authority that manages the vocabulary list (with a URI) and then > indicate the value? The atomic identity of the list is what we really care about... but that implies a managing authority. What we definitely don't want is multiple lists with the same "name." URIs and URNs are nice in that they provide at least a clue as to the authority on the way to uniqueness. - Art
