speaking of persistent naming... -----Original Message----- From: urn-nid-bounces@ietf.org [mailto:urn-nid-bounces@ietf.org] On Behalf Of Alfred HÎnes Sent: Monday, March 22, 2010 6:27 AM To: urn-nid@ietf.org; apps-discuss@ietf.org Subject: New Version Notification for draft-hakala-rfc3187bis-isbn-urn-00 (fwd) Folks, we have posted a RFC 3187-bis initial draft (see below). This work is part of the PersID project to establish an international network of stable resolution services for Persistent Identifiers (URNs), in particular for Bibliographic identifiers. To give this work a more solid ground, updates to the basic URN-related documents (RFC 2141 and RFC 3406) and URN namespace-specific RFCs are planned, and brought to the IETF, in order to bring these documents in alignment with current IETF Full Standards and IANA procedures. The ultimate goal is to establish a dedicated 'urnbis' WG in the IETF, hopefully by this summer, with an ambitious schedule to bring revised documents initially targetting PS / BCP status to the IESG, with the goal of fast progression of RFC 2141-bis on the Standards Track.

Filename: draft-hakala-rfc3187bis-isbn-urn Revision: 00 Title: Using International Standard Book Numbers as Uniform Resource Names Creation_date: 2010-03-22 WG ID: Independent Submission Number_of_pages: 17 Abstract: The International Standard Book Number, ISBN, is a widely used identifier for monographic publications. Since 2001, there has been a URN (Uniform Resource Names) namespace for ISBNs. The namespace registration was performed in RFC 3187 and applies to the ISBN as specified in the original ISO Standard 2108-1992. To allow for further growth in use, the successor ISO Standard, ISO 2108-2005, has defined an expanded format for the ISBN, known as "ISBN-13". This document replaces RFC 3187 and defines how both the old and new ISBN standard can be supported within the URN framework and the syntax for URNs defined in RFC 2141. An updated namespace registration is included, which describes how both the old and the new ISBN format can share the same namespace. Discussion This draft version is the outcome of work started in 2008 and brought to the IETF as a contribution to a much larger effort to revise the basic URN RFCs, in order to bring them in alignment with the current URI Standard (STD 63, RFC 3986), ABNF, and IANA guidelines, and to establish a modern URN resolution system for bibliographic identifiers. Until a more specific mailing list is established, comments are welcome on the urn-nid@ietf.org mailing list (or sent to the authors).
