I've tried to catch up with this thread, as well as the geo-location discussion. It is a somewhat unstructured discussion and I can't claim to have grasped it all, but with that as a disclaimer .... I would suggest looking at the info: URI scheme, http://info-uri.info/registry/ and consider registering 'geoloc' (please don't call it 'loc') as an 'info:' namespace. (An 'info:' namespace is analagous to a URN namespace.) It seems to me that this geo-location sub-scheme is appropriate for use with 'info' though that would be something for the 'info URI Board (or whatever it's called) to decide, and if so, approval/registration is a fairly lightweight process (I can personally attest to that). This approach would render the issue of a new URI scheme moot. --Ray Denenberg Library of Congress
