I don't think that we can define normative URIs belonging to the www.example.com domain as that domain is reserved for use in specifications and as such is unmanaged. If we're describing a normative HTTP binding, that defines URIs that are to be used to identify a resource such as a definition for a MEP, then the domain of that URI needs to be one that the W3C manages. I don't think that the URIs we're defining for the definition of the single-request-response MEP is meant as an example, I believe that it is meant as a normative definition that can be referenced by other/future binding specifications. > >
