Subject: [xtm-wg] URNs out of the bag already. [Was: Merging proposals uploaded]


Interestingly enough, the invalid MS Word-generated "HTML" that Kal
uploaded provided a clue on how the World's Largest Software Vendor
is already using URNs:

   <html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml"
         xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"
         xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word"
         xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
   <head>
   ...

I won't mention the other proprietary ugliness of Word's "HTML", 
suffice it to say that if the IETF goes after somebody, we can point
to a predecessor, albeit a proprietary one.
