Re: [ws-rx] NEW ISSUE: XML Namespace URIs
In the WS-Notification and WS-Resource Framework specifications we have
adopted a more concise version of the URIs. This was to avoid bloat of
things that embed the uri, like wsa:Action MAPs. We also chose to omit the
date, and instead append a version number that increments if and when the
namespace changes incompatibility (I know this is an area where there can
be much debate).
Also the current draft of the naming guidelines states that URLs SHOULD be
rooted at the docs domain, and the tcShortName MUST be the next node in
the URL after the base.
Have you considered using the WSN / WSRF convention? It would mean that
the namespace URIs would be
xmlns:wsrm=?http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsrx/rm-1?
xmlns:wsrmp=?http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsrx/rmp-1?

[ws-rx] NEW ISSUE: XML Namespace URIs
Title: XML Namespace URIs
Description: We need to decide upon the normative XML namespace URIs that
must be used by implementations of these specifications.
Justification: Self-evident.
Target: all
Type: editorial
Proposal: The namespace URIs for WS-RX-defined schemas should be URLs that
resolve to RDDL documents that provide information about the schema as
well as links to the corresponding specification(s). Per OASIS guidelines,
the RDDL documents must be hosted by OASIS. Therefore the exact URL values
will need to be co-ordinated with OASIS but, in general, they should look
something like the following:
xmlns:wsrm=?http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ws-rx/wsreliablemessaging-200507.html
?
xmlns:wsrmp=?http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ws-rx/wsrmpolicy-200507.html?
Note that the ?200507? in the URL is represents the schema version as a
date (July, 2005).
