Hi, I tried to understand what this memo does.
== namespace ==
In 12.1 it creates an URN for the namespace,
specifying a (minimal) XHTML page in the XML
section of the registration template.
Apparently IANA does not use this as intended,
they publish the complete templates as text:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/xml-registry/ns/common-policy.txt
http://www.iana.org/assignments/xml-registry/ns/contact-1.0.txt
The latter says "XML: None. Namespace URIs do
not represent an XML specification." In some
cases there are no templates at all, examples:
urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx
urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav
If the whole point of this exercise is to get
a row in in the namespace table, then the 4th
column already is a pointer to the reference,
and IANA doesn't support the creation of XHTML
pages of registration templates in the third
