[humanmarkup] Changing the Short Name of the TC

[Rex Brooks <rexb@starbourne.com>]

Hi Everyone,

One of the items of concern with regard to our specification and 
future specifications is the official "short name" of the TC. This is 
what you see in messages from our mailing lists like this: 
[humanmarkup] [humanmarkup-comment].

When we started our TC I didn't understand that this form would be 
part of the official target namespace for our TC. Regardless of the 
fact that I am going to suggest that OASIS adopt an alternate form of 
namespace location specifier, using a URL reference for those TCs 
such as HumanMarkup which provide xmlschema.xsd files as the 
normative specifications, we decided before joining OASIS that our 
namespace prefix would be"huml:" and for the sake of consistency it 
would be good if our "short name" was the same.

So I would like to formally change our short name to huml for the 
sake of this consistency and to allow our URN namespace to be 
specified as "huml" as well.

We can decide this by mail or in our next meeting. It would be better 
to make this change before we make our public announcement about the 
30-day comment period.

Ciao,
Rex
