draft-garcia-dime-aaa-uri-00.txt On updating the document it was detected than an update was needed to make the URI definition compatible with RFC 2396 / RFC 3986. The original definition created a hierarchical URI (aaa:// ) But AAA URIs are not hierarchical : RFC 4395 (Registration of URI schemes say): Avoid improper use of "//". The use of double slashes in the first part of a URI is not an artistic indicator that what follows is a URI: Double slashes are used ONLY when the syntax of the URI's contains a hierarchical structure as described in RFC 3986. In URIs from such schemes, the use of double slashes indicates that what follows is the top hierarchical element for a naming authority. (See Section 3.2 of RFC 3986 for more details.) URI schemes that do not contain a conformant hierarchical structure in their SHOULD NOT use double slashes following the ":" string. Some parts were underspecified. ‘FQDN’ is not formally defined -> apparently IP addresses are not allowed No clear semantics to AAAS: “transport security used”. No strategy for adding parameters to the URI.
