Internet-Draft Ryan Moats draft-ietf-urn-ietf-03.txt AT&T Expires in six months September 1997 A URN Namespace for IETF Documents Filename: draft-ietf-urn-ietf-03.txt Status of This Memo This document is an Internet-Draft. Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), its areas, and its working groups. Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts. Internet-Drafts are draft documents valid for a maximum of six months and may be updated, replaced, or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to use Internet- Drafts as reference material or to cite them other than as ``work in progress.'' To learn the current status of any Internet-Draft, please check the ``1id-abstracts.txt'' listing contained in the Internet- Drafts Shadow Directories on ftp.is.co.za (Africa), nic.nordu.net (Europe), munnari.oz.au (Pacific Rim), ds.internic.net (US East Coast), or ftp.isi.edu (US West Coast). Abstract A system for Uniform Resource Names (URNs) must be capable of supporting new naming systems. As an example of proposing a new namespace, this document proposes the ''ietf'' namespace. This namespace consists of the RFC family of documents (RFCs, STDs, and FYIs) developed by the IETF and published by the RFC editor and the minutes of working groups (WG) and birds of a feather (BOF) meetings that occur during IETF conferences. Both the current URN framework and URN syntax support this namespace. 0. Changes from -02 This document has been restructured to use the template proposed in draft-ietf-urn-nid-req-03.txt. Example Perl scripts for resolving this namespace have been supplied in an Appendix. Expires 9/30/98 [Page 1] INTERNET DRAFT A URN Namespace for IETF Documents March 1998 1. Introduction This document proposes the "ietf" namespace, which consists of the RFC family of documents (RFCs, STDs, and FYIs) developed by the IETF and published by the RFC editor and the minutes of working groups (WG) and birds of a feather (BOF) meetings that occur during IETF conferences. The namespace specification is for a formal namespace. 2. Specification Template Namespace ID: "ietf" requested. Declared registrant of the namespace: Ryan Moats jayhawk@att.com Declaration of structure: The identifier has the following ABNF [2] specification: NSS = (family ":" number) / ("mtg-" number "-" wgbofname) family = "rfc" / "std" / "fyi" number = 1*DIGIT wgbofname = 1*LETDIGIT LETDIGIT = DIGIT / %x41..%x5a / %x61..%x7a DIGIT = %x30..%x39 If the IESG (or it successor) adds a new document series, this ABNF specification will need to be updated. Further, If a working group or BOF is created that used characters outside the range of this ABNF specification, this specification will need to be updated. Any system intended to resolve names for this namespace should be written with the awareness that this could occur at any time. Identifier uniqueness considerations: Because the rfc-editor assigns the RFC, FYI and STD number uniquely these URNs are unique. The meeting minutes portion of the namespace is guaranteed unique because the URN includes the sequence number of the IETF conference Expires 9/30/98 [Page 2] INTERNET DRAFT A URN Namespace for IETF Documents March 1998 Identifier persistence considerations: Persistence of the URNs of this namespace is dependent on the persistence of the underlying documents. Process of identifier assignment: Assignment of URNs from this namespace occur in two ways. The first is when a new RFC, FYI or STD is passed by the IESG and published by the RFC Editor. This new document will have a new series number and will therefore define a new URN. The document mappings maintained by the RFC Editor (the index files "rfc-index.txt", "fyi-index.txt", "std-index.txt") are defined to be the definitive statement of the assignment of RFC Family URNs in this namespace. The second way a URN is assigned is when a working group or birds of a feather files meeting minutes as part of an IETF conference. The list of minutes maintained by the IETF for each working group and conference in the subtree pointed at by the URL ftp://ietf.org/ietf/ is considered the definitive assignment of URNs for working group or birds of a feather minutes. Process of identifier resolution: A mirrored copy of the underlying documentation is required to resolve these URNs. Resolution via HTTP is accomplished by a set of simple Perl cgi-bin scripts presented in Appendix A. Rules for Lexical Equivalence: The entire URN is case-insensitive. Conformance with URN Syntax: There are no additional characters reserved. Validation mechanism: None specified. Scope: Expires 9/30/98 [Page 3] INTERNET DRAFT A URN Namespace for IETF Documents March 1998 Global. 3. Security Considerations Because this namespace defines no additional reserved characters, it does not add any security considerations beyond those inherent from the existence of the reserved characters from [1]. Further, none of the reserved characters from [1] are used in the definition of the NSS. This means that resolvers for this namespace may be considered "secure" in the sense that any escaping of characters in the NSS MUST result in the resolver indicating that the URN has incorrect syntax. 4.
