-------------

The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'The IETF XML Registry'
<draft-mealling-iana-xmlns-registry-04.txt> as a BCP. This has been
reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working
Group. The IESG contact persons are Ned Freed and Ted Hardie.


 Technical Summary

         This document creates an IANA maintained registry of XML element 
 identifiers so
         that document authors and implementors have a well maintained and
         authoritative location for their XML elements. As part of this
         standard, the IANA will maintain

         o the public representation of the document,

         o the URI for the elements if one is provided at the time of
               registration,

         o a registry of Public Identifiers as URIs.
