To date it's actually mostly been discussed in private conversation via
email. I recently did a major rewrite, so draft 12 is a bit skeletal, but I
was planning on bringing it back to uri@w3.org once I figured it could
stand up to a bit of serious scrutiny. Of course, it's a public document,
so if people want to chew it up right now they're more than welcome. If
there's a better place to discuss it, I can push out an update with a
better link.

Would anyone be upset if I said it should be discussed either on
apps-discuss@ietf.org or uri@w3.org ? And is there a preference for one
over the other?

The more people who can contribute, the better. (...I think.) Especially
people who actually use the scheme. If, one day, we can get it pushed
through the process, that would be brilliant.
