Further to our discussions about xri and the general matter of new URI
schemes which overlap substantially with http:

  http://www.niso.org/news/releases/pr-InfoURI-11-05.html

What do we have to do to get the IETF to at least give us a heads-up
when a decision like this is coming. . . ?

Or perhaps this happened, either to the URI list or via the IETF
liaison, and W3C dropped the ball?  Indeed I see an announcement of a
new draft from July 2004 on the URI list [1], but no followup at all
there :-(.

Too late now.
