After review of this draft, this seems quite reasonable. I found little to
dispute and generally agree with both the requirements enumerated and their
encoding. Good work.

Nits:

I would probably change the title of section three; perhaps "Requirements
for URN encoding" instead of "Requirements for URNs as they are encoded."
Drop the trailing period, in any case.

The inclusion of "location" as meta-information (end of first paragraph,
page 2) is confusing in light of the immediately preceeding definition
provided for URLs.

I recommend the removal of the word "often" in the formal definition of URN
(2nd paragraph of page 2).
