Leiba 3 Internet-Draft Huawei Technologies 4 Updates: 2648,3553 (if approved) February 14, 2013 5 Intended status: Informational 6 Expires: August 16, 2013 8 Registration of Second-Level URN Namespaces Under "ietf" 9 draft-leiba-urnbis-ietf-namespace-02 11 Abstract 13 RFC 2648 defines the "ietf" URN namespace, and defines a number of 14 sub-namespaces. RFC 3553 defines an additional sub-namespace, 15 "params", and creates a registry to document allocations under that. 16 But there is no registry that lists, in one place, all sub-namespaces 17 of "ietf". This document creates and populates such a registry, and 18 updates RFC 2648 and RFC 3553 to refer readers of those documents to 19 this registry. 21 Status of this Memo 23 This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the 24 provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79. 26 Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering 27 Task Force (IETF). Note that other groups may also distribute 28 working documents as Internet-Drafts. The list of current Internet- 29 Drafts is at http://datatracker.ietf.org/drafts/current/. 31 Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months 32 and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any 33 time. It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference 34 material or to cite them other than as "work in progress." 36 This Internet-Draft will expire on August 16, 2013. 38 Copyright Notice 40 Copyright (c) 2013 IETF Trust and the persons identified as the 41 document authors.

Introduction 53 "A URN Namespace for IETF Documents" [RFC2648] defines the "ietf" URN 54 namespace, and defines a number of sub-namespaces. "An IETF URN Sub- 55 namespace for Registered Protocol Parameters" [RFC3553] defines an 56 additional sub-namespace, "params", and creates a registry to 57 document allocations under that. But there is no registry that 58 lists, in one place, all sub-namespaces of "ietf". This document 59 creates and populates such a registry, and updates RFC 2648 and RFC 60 3553 to refer readers of those documents to this registry. 62 2. IANA Considerations 64 There is currently a top-level registry group called "IETF Protocol 65 Parameter Identifiers", which contains one registry, "IETF URN Sub- 66 namespace for Registered Protocol Parameters". IANA is asked to take 67 the following three actions: 69 Action 1: Rename the group "IETF Protocol Parameter Identifiers", 70 giving it the new name "Uniform Resource Name (URN) Namespace for 71 IETF Use". The existing registry in that group will remain, and its 72 name will be unchanged. 74 Action 2: Add a new registry to the renamed group. The new registry 75 will be called "IETF URN Sub-namespaces", and new registrations will 76 use the IETF Review policy [RFC5226], which provides for IETF 77 consensus in order to add a new URN namespace under "ietf". The new 78 registry will appear first in the group, to provide a human-friendly, 79 top-down resolution of the namespace hierarchy. 81 Action 3: Populate the new registry as follows: 83 IETF URN Sub-namespaces 85 Registration Procedures: IETF Review 86 Reference: [RFCXXXX] 88 Note: This is the Official Registry for sub-namespaces of the 'IETF' 89 URN Namespace. 91 Sub-namespace | Reference | IANA Registry Reference 92 --------------+-----------+----------------------------------------- 93 rfc | [RFC2648] | none 94 fyi | [RFC2648] | none 95 std | [RFC2648] | none 96 bcp | [RFC2648] | none 97 id | [RFC2648] | none 98 mtg | [RFC2648] | none 99 params | [RFC3553] | [http://www.iana.org/assignments/params] 100 --------------+-----------+----------------------------------------- 102 [[IANA and RFC Editor: Please replace "XXXX", above, with this RFC 103 number, and remove this note.]] 105 3. Security Considerations 106 This is a procedural document, and is entirely unrelated to security. 108 4.
