URI.ARPA

DISPATCH
This document updates RFC 3405 by removing
references to the IETF tree from the procedures for requesting
that a URI scheme be inserted into the URI.ARPA zone.
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 Requirements
This 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 Considerations
This entire document is updated instructions to IANA.
Security Considerations
This update does not change the security considerations in
RFC 3405.
