Folks, I have been working on getting the SE/ODSD primer [1] to pass the W3C publication rules [2] so it can be put in /TR space. There were a number of "normal" errors in this document, which I don't mind fixing (though this does consume time). But a general problem that I want to highlight for any other document editors is minting URIs in Web address space that we do not own. Specifically, ODSD refers to (non-existent) things in http://ecommerce.org and http://auctioning.org. These are clearly (I think) meant to be examples only. While the first domain exists, the second domain is explicitly advertised as for sale. Neither is an appropriate place in which to create new example URIs. To fix this, I am changing them to ecommerce.example.org and auctioning.example.org respectively. Please let's avoid [3]namespace squatting in our documents.
