Is there an implicit assumption regarding the relationship between the "ownership" of a given DNS domain and an associated subdomain under the "path.urn" space? Is there explicitly no relationship? For example, could I register one of my servers as the "uiuc.edu" URN servers, and thereby preempt use of URNs which begin <path:/uiuc.edu/...>? It might be a good idea to have some discussion in the document about the operational and administrative impacts of this mapping approach. /John
