Uhm. Yeah. Someone else mentioned that.

/me goes off to run "make pdf"
/me ponders one odd page break and decides not to worry about it just now
/me uploads the document

The PDF is now available at

  http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/entity/download.php/2425/cs-entity-xml-catalogs-1.0.pdf

/me mutters something untranscribable about database backends to
    websites and how they generate totally stupid URIs and makes a
    note to write a screed about it someday

| opposition to it? I know some people doesn't like URNs in namespaces for

They're already pretty widely used, actually. They're A Good Thing.
