Namespaces

[Nikola Stojanovic <nikola.stojanovic@encodasystems.com>]

One of the outstanding items for this subteam was the resolution on
namespaces. Here is what I'd like to suggest to the group to consider.

One of the few registered formal URN Namespaces is "A URN Namespace for
OASIS" (see [1]). It seems that its structure and semantics would be
sufficient for our work. According to [1] ebXML namespaces would be under
"names:tc:" hierarchy so they would start with urn:oasis:names:tc: A unique
"tc-id" in our case, according to Karl Best, would be ebxml-regrep. Then the
rest of it might look like:

urn:oasis:names:tc:ebxml-regrep:registry:xsd:1.1 - this would be a Registry
schema
urn:oasis:names:tc:ebxml-regrep:services:wsdl:1.7 - this would be a Registry
Services WSDL
urn:oasis:names:tc:ebxml-regrep:soapbinding:wsdl:1.8 - this would be a
Registry Services WSDL SOAP binding
