Thanks for the clarification, Ray.

Absent anyone else raising concerns, I'll change the draft to remove any normative specification of second-level underscore names, and add some informative (non-normative) language pointing to the spiffy new(ish) and improved IANA table.


That leaves what I think is still a significant open question:

For URI records RFC 7553 says they're either named the same as SRV
records, or they use enumservice names from the Enumservice

Declaring a namespace as the union of two, independently-maintained
registries is a very efficient way to encourage -- actually in
theoretical terms, it guarantees -- collisions.


I see this as a fundamental problem with the URI spec, for the reason cited. I also think the current spec should be careful not to promote that problem.

Suggestions?
