I've sent a revision of the vnd scheme I-D, draft-king-vnd-urlscheme-01.txt, to the I-D editor today. I've tried to address concerns communicated to me by several persons (thank you). In particular, I've generalized and simplified the language on IANA approval of 'vendor-ID' strings, to attempt to more closely follow the MIME model AND to provide IANA with whatever discretion it deems appropriate; as before, one of my goals is to defuse the "trademark/copyright/vanity" issue, by (hopefully) diminishing the apparent value of these naming strings. I'm not attaching the draft, both out of deference to your inboxes and in light of the current virus/worm problem. Please obtain it from the IETF site once it's been published, and I look forward to your comments. -- Ian It's amazing what you can accomplish when no one cares who gets the credit. -- Don James Ian King, QA Lead / Internet Bill Delivery & Payment \ Microsoft Corporation
