It seems that you're defining identity to mean what the HTTP spec means by equivalence. Quite aside from whether this is a good idea or not, if that's what you mean then you should say it explicitly: "Two namespace names are identical if they are equivalent in the sense of the HTTP spec." (Obviously that sentence needs some cleanup, but you get the idea.) Paul Abrahams
