Hi Peter,

Question: Is 32 characters enough to represent these variants (presumably they
will be A-labels, not U-labels)?
Answer: variant isn’t a place holder of a label, it’s the extension name itself, for instance the variant extension names space would be xmlns="urn:ar:params:xml:ns:variant-1.0"

Statement: Thankfully, uniqueness applies to the full URN, so if you guarantee uniqueness within the 'gdr' namespace then we don't need to worry about the uniqueness of extension strings across other namespaces.
Response: Do you want me to remove the statement about uniqueness?

Regards
Quoc

Is 32 characters enough to represent these variants (presumably they

will be A-labels, not U-labels)?

Thankfully, uniqueness applies to the full URN, so if you guarantee

uniqueness within the 'gdr' namespace then we don't need to worry about

the uniqueness of extension strings across other namespaces.
