Larry - I think the application scenarios are all over the place, anywhere
we have meta-information being passed around, for example Gopher+, HTTP
"Head" or Prospero. What we dont have is a common way to pass meta info
between these protocols.

Back to the original question - I think specifications of a minimum set of
attributes belong with particular programs, or in applicability documents.
e.g.
"When you see a request for the HEAD of a document return a URC with at
least the Author, Date and URL fields"
