Introduction Part Five of the Dynamic Delegation Discovery System (DDDS)
describes the registration procedures for assignments in
URI.ARPA. The document requires that registrations be in the
"IETF tree" of URI registrations. The use of URI scheme name
trees was defined in RFC 2717
but discontinued by RFC 4395 and its successors. Since the
use of trees was discontinued, there is no way in the current
process set out in BCP 35 to meet the requirement to register within that
tree. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED",
"MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as
described in BCP 14
when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.
Updated RequirementsThis document removes the normative requirement
from RFC 3405 for registrations in URI.ARPA to be from the IETF URI tree.All registrations in URI.ARPA MUST now be for schemes that
are permanent registrations, as described in BCP 35.
IANA ConsiderationsThis entire document is updated instructions to IANA.
Security ConsiderationsThis update does not change the security considerations in
RFC 3405.
ReferencesNormative ReferencesKey words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement LevelsIn many standards track documents several words are used to signify the requirements in the specification. These words are often capitalized. This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF documents. This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.Dynamic Delegation Discovery System (DDDS) Part Five: URI.ARPA Assignment ProceduresThis document is fifth in a series that is completely specified in "Dynamic Delegation Discovery System (DDDS) Part One: The Comprehensive DDDS" (RFC 3401). It is very important to note that it is impossible to read and understand any document in this series without reading the others. This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.Guidelines and Registration Procedures for URI SchemesThis document updates the guidelines and recommendations, as well as the IANA registration processes, for the definition of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) schemes. It obsoletes RFC 4395.Ambiguity of Uppercase vs Lowercase in RFC 2119 Key WordsRFC 2119 specifies common key words that may be used in protocol specifications. This document aims to reduce the ambiguity by clarifying that only UPPERCASE usage of the key words have the defined special meanings.Informative ReferencesRegistration Procedures for URL Scheme NamesThis document defines the process by which new URL scheme names are registered. This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.Guidelines and Registration Procedures for New URI SchemesThis document provides guidelines and recommendations for the definition of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) schemes. It also updates the process and IANA registry for URI schemes. It obsoletes both RFC 2717 and RFC 2718.
