How about this? (Actually this might be in my document, I don't remember
if I put it in.)

Assume that we make a URN which names a document,
when I request information about that document/product, I
specify a version number, *or* I ask for the current version.

Functionally this would be:

<registrar://ora/nutshell books/some book> is an implicit
reference to the current version

<registrar://ora/nutshell books/some book:2.0> is an
explicit reference to something which does not change,
ie. version 2.0 of the book and

<registrar://ora/nutshell books/some book:0.0> is an
explicit reference to the current version
