Re: Definition of blob URI Scheme

Philippe -

I discussed this with the expert for URI scheme registration. 

Re (1) - It's common practice in the IETF to place the registration template in the document, but this isn't strictly required; you could just submit the template separate, in the request to IANA.

Re (2) - it isn't necessary to wait until LC to get review on the list.

Re (3) - It's possible to request provision registration as soon as the URI-review feedback has been dealt with -- no need to wait for CR.

Cheers,
