I can see that there needs to be room in the standard to allow that a namespace URI can be any old thing -- it may or may not use a "http" scheme, and there may or may not be something retrievable there, and the thing being retrieved might be an english document, or a dtd, or a redirect to sex.com. But it would be great if there were a standard that also allowed for greater precision, so that one could distinguish the notions of: - a URN - a dtd or xml schema - an english spec - a document describing rights for some TBD rights protocol I've seen all of the above used for namespace URI. So it seems the situation is being excerbated by the lack of a standard linking syntax (XLink, RDF) and an associated standardized vocabulary for these associations. -mda xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
