RFC 2802, "Digital Signatures for the v1.0 Internet Open Trading Protocol (IOTP)", April 2000

Source of RFC: trade (app)

Errata ID: 3210
Status: Held for Document Update
Type: Technical
Publication Format(s) : TEXT

Reported By: Alfred Hoenes
Date Reported: 2012-05-03
Held for Document Update by: Barry Leiba

Section 5.2.2 et al. says:

urn:ietf-org:hmac

It should say:

urn:ietf:params:hmac 

Notes:

The URN used in 2 instances in Section 5.2.2 has never been
registered -- not even the URN Namespace 'ietf-org' !

The Corrected Text is based on RFC 2648 and RFC 3553,
but by barely suggesting this potentially correct URN
(in the spirit of these RFCs), it is still not yet
registered with IANA!

So this correction should be Held for Update, and any successor
of the RFC should provide the necessary registration of this URN
with IANA.

Similarly, the other URNs used in the RFC,
urn:ibm-com:dom-hash
urn:nist-gov:sha1
urn:fips:sha1
urn:rsasdi-com:rsa-encryption
urn:X500:X509v3
urn:nist-gov:dsa
urn:ansi-org:ecdsa
all are entirely hypothetical; all the URN Namespaces used
there have never been registered so far -- even 12 years after
the publication of RFC 2802.
