Re: TC154 vote on NWI - your approval needed

Hi ebXML TRP folk,

Not sure what this really has to do with TRP, but 6523 (as I've said 
before) is old and has a limited range for IDs.  For historic reasons, 
we may want to support it in URNs with TRP, but I would not suggest 
changing what we already have to accommodate it (if that is necessary, 
which it probably isn't -- it's been years since I actually read 6523).

Best regards,
Henry
