No, to Linas. You could really use anything there. Your organization's URL is pretty much guaranteed unique as a namespace, and it appears to be traditional to use it. You can, however, put something at the URL describing the namespace--it's purpose, contents, etc. The main requirement is that it be unique. -- Matthew Vanecek perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(41*2),sqrt(7056),(unpack(c,H)-2),oct(115),10);' ******************************************************************************** For 93 million miles, there is nothing between the sun and my shadow except me.
