	Cover Pages: Extensible Name Service (XNS)
		Extensible Name Service (XNS) is a protocol for digital identity and relationship management that spans any number of devices and domains.
		The TC Charter asserts that "there is a demand for distributed directory services that enable the identification of any type of resource, both those directly on the network and those abstract from it, and the sharing of data across domains, enterprises, and applications.
		An XNS name is intended to be a personal name for life.

	The Need for a Global Identity Management Service
		The service and protocol should be based on XML and XML Schemas for universal data representation and schema definition.
		This service should provide negotiated privacy and security under common standards for accountability; be open to all registration and certification authorities; and support both hierarchical and peer-to-peer trust models.
		Extensible Name Service (XNS) and the XNS Public Trust Organization (XNSORG) have been under development since 1998 to meet the requirements for a global identity management service set forth in this paper.

	XDI.ORG - An explanation of i-names
		Because an i-name is not tied to a specific physical or network address, it is also the first address that an individual can keep for life—across schools, jobs, homes, and travels.
		I-name syntax and i-name services are based on the XRI (Extensible Resource Identifier) and XDI (XRI Data Interchange) specifications under development from OASIS, the Internet’s leading XML technical standards body.
		XDI.ORG is conducting the first trial i-name registry services in partnership with Identity Commons, an international membership organization devoted to providing individuals and organizations with new ways to control their identity and privacy on the Internet.

		Preferred name syntax The DNS specifications attempt to be as general as possible in the rules for constructing domain names.
		Note that both of these services are similar to functions that could be performed by inverse queries; the difference is that this part of the domain name space is structured according to address, and hence can guarantee that the appropriate data can be located without an exhaustive search of the domain space.
		The domain name ARPA is defined at offset 64 using a pointer to the ARPA component of the name F.ISI.ARPA at 20; note that this pointer relies on ARPA being the last label in the string at 20.

		The name service can be used to associate any name with any object independent of the type of object, and arbitrary name spaces can be created and used as first-class objects.
		The same client interface is used not only for all conventional operating system and network naming, but also for other services that support naming-style interaction.
		In Spring, names have meaning only in the context in which they are used[1,7] The name service allows an object to be associated...

		Like the DNS (Domain Name Service), XNS is a way to associate objects with their names.
		The agents are the core of the system, and they should provide a number of services to their owners once more XNS infrastructure is in place.
		The total number of possible names is larger than the estimated number of subatomic particles in the universe, so we're unlikely to run out any time soon.

	XDI.ORG
		This page is a short summary of the XNS Name Conversion Program, which is being held as part of the Early Global Services (EGS) Program from Identity Commons, 2idi, XDI.ORG, and Cordance.
		At that time XNS registrations were discontinued and XNSORG and OneName agreed that all XNS name registrants would have the opportunity to renew their registrations at no charge once service was restarted under the new OASIS specifications.
		An email address by itself is no longer a valid global personal i-name (there is now a different way to use an email address as an i-name.) Therefore XNS name registrants who registered only an email address as their XNS name will have the opportunity select a new global personal i-name at no charge.

	XMLMania.com - NEWS - OASIS TC Promotes Extensible Resource Identifier (XRI) Specification (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		An Extensible Resource Identifier (XRI) provides a standard means of abstractly identifying a resource independent of any particular concrete representation of that resource -- or, in the case of a completely abstract resource, of any representation at all.
		Meeting this need requires an extensible, location-, application-, and transport-independent identification scheme that provides addressability not just of resources, but also of their attributes and versions.
		In real life, there are many names for the same thing, and XDI supports XRI synonyms in order to conform to the human world.

	rfc 1713 reference for Network Programming in .NET with C# & Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET)
		Note that zone transfers are done by contacting authoritative name servers for that zone, so it must be possible to make this kind of request from such servers: some of them refuse zone transfers (except from secondaries) to avoid congestion.
		It happens when a name server is listed in the NS records for some domain and in fact it is not a server for that domain.
		To produce useful logs, named was applied a patch to detect and log lame delegations (this patch was originally written by Don Lewis from Silicon Systems and is now part of the latest release of BIND thanks to Bryan Beecher, so it is expected to be widely available in the near future).

		An i-name is simply "unspammable"--you can't send it email, call it, or send it a fax directly unless the owner has given you permission.
		Because an i-name is not tied to a specific physical or network address, it is also the first address that an individual can keep for life--across schools, jobs, homes, and travels.

	Extensible Name Service - a Whatis.com definition - see also: XNS
		Extensible Name Service (XNS) is an open Extensible Markup Language (XML)-based protocol that specifies a way to establish and manage a universal addressing system.
		XNS can be considered to be an enhanced version of the domain name system (DNS) because it resolves a universal address into any other kind of address, just as DNS resolves a domain name into an IP address.
		All changeable contact information such as street address, telephone number, or e-mail address is linked to the permanent universal address and is automatically updated globally when a change occurs.

		Web services, first hatched by vendor-led standards bodies in 2000, were first touted as integration points for business-to-business e-commerce communications across firewalls.
		However, despite the overwhelming lobby in favour of Web services, there is what appears to be a complete lack of understanding as to what they are.
		The 'XPointer Framework' presents an extensible system for XML addressing and underlies additional schemes; the 'element()' scheme allows basic addressing of XML elements; the 'xmlns()' scheme is for interpreting namespace prefixes in pointers; the 'xpointer()' scheme allows full XML addressing.

		To manage IP Telephony "as a service" requires a top-down, service-centric approach that connects service levels to resources and shows the impact one technology has on another and how it affects any given service.

		Service level management (SLM) is a new approach to IT management that establishes a set of policies and procedures to assure that IT services are delivered at a pre-defined level for the lowest possible cost.

	OASIS seeks URI scheme that accommodates XML, Web services \| InfoWorld \| \| 2003-01-08 \| By Paul Krill (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		The OASIS Extensible Resource Identifier (XRI) Technical Committee will define a URI scheme and a corresponding Uniform Resource Namespace (URN) for a common identification scheme across domains, applications, and transport protocols.
		XRI is based on XML and is being derived from XNS (Extensible Name Service), a distributed objects effort that had been focused on Domain Name Service, Taylor said.
		XRI would eliminate the need to know the identifier of a UDDI server where a Web service can be found, he said.

		Another taste of the power of Mac OS X. I own a domain name (call it foo.com), and all email sent to an address of the form @foo.com comes to me; unfortunately, it all gets put into a single mail spool file—so mail to me@foo.com and to mywife@foo.com are lumped together.

		Increasingly, there is a demand for distributed directory services that enable the identification of resources (including people and organizations) and the sharing of data across domains, enterprises, and applications.
		Specifically, this service will reflect the simple transactional nature of the WWW, i.e., it will use a small set of REST (Representational State Transfer) or CRUD-like operators on an infinitely extensible set of XRI-addressable resources.
