URN namespace for EDXL

[Renato Iannella <renato@nicta.com.au>]

Hi all - two of the EDXL elements (Distribution Status, Distribution 
Type)
define their own vocabulary of values (eg Actual, Exercise, System, 
Test - for Status).

Should we utlise the formal URN mechanism (that other OASIS technical 
committees use)
to give these all unique names instead?

For example:
    urn:oasis:names:tc:em:edxl:status:actual
    urn:oasis:names:tc:em:edxl:status:exercise

(not sure of the exact components for the URN - is there an OASIS 
document on that?)

The main advantage is that we uniquely identify the source of the 
vocabulary, and later,
we may wish to support other vocabularies.


Cheers...  Renato Iannella
