Not much interest ... I wonder ... http://info-uri.info Registry Entries
lists the following Publishing Authorities:

NASA Astrophysics Data System
GenBank and PubMed (National Library of Medicine)
Library of Congress
OCLC
NISO

Maybe "limited interest", but worth considering IMO.

I acknowledge : no European Authority so far :))

I read through a first draft in November (discussed with a few people at
the UK XML Topic Maps conference), but frankly there was not much interest,
as the proposal does not seem to offer anything more than, say,
Handle-based systems: Further it does not seem to qualify as a specific
scheme given that it fails the test of being able to "deliver" (in a
service sense not a network or transmission one) anything that the http
scheme does not already manage.
BTW, this was the same issue that put the proposed DOI: scheme in the dock
