Hi Dan,
Dan said:
Would qualifying the DNS name with a date sort this?
urn:x-hname:spam.org:1999-05-29:schemata:MakeMoneyFast
If I owned spam.org for a week, I could through my life issue hname URIs
in this form where there date element fell within the period of my
ownership...
Didier says:
First you don't need to include a DNS domain name in the urn. In fact by
doing so you introduce a location dependant context. URNS should be location
independent. So, your urn should be:
urn:x-hname:1999-05-29:schemata:MakeMoneyFast
Algorithm to resolve the name into a location:
a) the client connects to a DNS server (this is, in that case the name space
respository - let's say its W3C)
b) the client requests for a particular DNS record which contains a set of
URL attached to a URN.
c) The DNS server send to the client a URL collection attached to the URN
d) the client uses the URL to fetch the document _located_ at the URL.
