It has been brought to my attention that an OASIS policy that states
"HTTP scheme namespace URIs are to be preferred" is already in place:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/specGuidelines/namingGuidelines/resourceNamingV07.html#NamespaceDesign
I do note that this policy does not allow other files in the
directory, so we cannot put the schema files in that directory as I
had hoped. We can perhaps create another directory with these files, say:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/codelist/genericode/1.0/
I was unaware of these policy issues before writing my comments to
Ray ... would members please review the policy statements before
tomorrow's meeting?
Thanks!
