Other Solutions: CNRP?
- [I was asked by the organizers to give a talk on CNRP. I don't know why,
but I decided to do at least a slide.]
- DNS: Single, global, universal, and consistent hierarchical namespace,
(close to) exact match
- CNRP (draft-ietf-cnrp-03.txt):
- Keywords rather than names
- No hierarchy
- Categories defined by properties (e.g. language, geography,...)
- Multiple results possible (e.g. for pizza delivery in Yokohama)
- Fuzzy matching of text, best effort
- Multiple conflicting servers (no authority)
- CNRP I18N:
- Protocol uses XML (mostly or only UTF-8)
- URI scheme uses UTF-8
- Equivalences are service quality issues
