A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the Uniform Resource Identifiers
Working Group of the IETF.

Title : A Critique of Existing URN Proposals
Author(s) : M. Madsen
Filename : draft-ietf-uri-urn-madsen-critique-00.txt
Pages : 4
Date : 08/22/1995

This document criticises existing URN (Uniform Resource Name) proposals in
the light of generality, extensibility, and general futureproofing. The
idea is to draw upon the best characteristics of the existing proposals so
as to converge on an acceptably functional and nonrestrictive draft
specification for both URN syntax and resolution schemes.

Send a message to: mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-uri-urn-madsen-critique-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
