This is a great idea, as it allows unconnected people to give the same
URIs to items, provided the items have previously been given a unique
identifier such as a Dewey Decimal code or Library of Congress number.
However, the URL given for NISO, http://info-uri.niso.org failes to
resolve.  Is there a comprehensive list of proposed info-namespaces about?
