A URN can for example identify a white-pages record, and in some countries there is legal issues bound to what kind of fetches you are able to do. In sweden you are not allowed, when having a white-pages database, to have sameone able to "dump" the database. You are only allowed searching, and you are forced to only allow a certain number of "hits". PatrikReceived on Thursday, 6 July 1995 09:54:32 UTC
