Subject: URN Normative reference link for X3D spec? To: URN-IETF@LISTS.NETSOL.COM Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hello everyone, The Web3D Consortium's Extensible 3D (X3D) work is in the final stages of submission to ISO (International Standard ISO/IEC FCD 19775:200x Final Committee Draft), for which URNs are referenced in the Normative reference part of the X3D spec. In reviewing this section of the spec I've noticed that the current URN reference mistakenly calls them "Universal" Resource Names, and I also wonder if the reference itself (RFC2141 - Moats 1997) is appropriate considering the work that's gone on with URNs since then? Is there a single URN reference that would be best (or more up to date) for the following specification references section? X3D Normative references: http://www.web3d.org/TaskGroups/x3d/X3DSpec_FCD/Part02/references.html The above Normative References section is also available through the main X3D spec at: http://www.web3d.org/fs_specifications.htm If there's a single URN resource that would be best for this URN reference (or perhaps a master link to various up-to-date resources that's likely to be a valid link for years to come so that the ref doesn't break downstream) please let me know so that I can relay that to the X3D spec group.
