Hi,
here's a copy of the snews-registration template posted in
I-D.ellermann-news-nntp-uri-02. Please tell me if you see
any errors or issues:
~~~ cut ~~~
This section contains the [RFC4395] template for the registration of
the historical "snews" scheme specified in [I-D.gilman-news-url].
URI scheme name: snews
Status: historical
URI scheme syntax: Same as for "news" (Section 4)
URI scheme semantics:
Like "news", but using NNTP over TLS with default
port 563 (no STARTTLS), registered as "nntps"
Encoding considerations:
Same as for "news" (Section 6)
Applications/protocols that use this URI scheme name:
For some user agents "snews" URLs trigger the use
of "nntps" instead of NNTP for their access on
Netnews
Interoperability considerations:
This URI scheme was not widely deployed, its
further use is deprecated in favour of ordinary
"news" URLs in conjunction with NNTP servers
supporting [RFC4642]
Security considerations:
See [RFC4642], the use of a dedicated port for
secure variants of a protocol was discouraged in
[RFC2595]
Contact: <mailto:uri@w3.org> (URI mailing list)
Change controller: IETF
References: RFCXXXX, [RFC4642], [I-D.gilman-news-url]
~~~ end ~~~
