A few comments with respect to the IANA Considerations 
(<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-vcarddav-carddav-06#section-14>):

1) The references style, as in

   "... defined by RFC4918 [RFC4918] for ..."

looks a bit weird (artifact from a time when this document used numeric 
references?)

2) The statement:

    "All other IANA considerations mentioned in RFC4918 [RFC4918] also
    apply to this document."

is very misleading; RFC 4918's IANA Considerations talk about URI scheme 
registrations, HTTP header registrations, and HTTP status code 
registrations. None of this is relevant to CardDAV, so just drop the 
sentence.

3) I also found the statement below confusing:

   "XML: None.  Namespace URIs do not represent an XML specification."

Proposal: just state:

   "XML: None - not applicable for namespace registrations".

BR, Julian
