Procedure: <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-about-uri-scheme-07#section-5.2.1> (essentially: send the template to IANA and you're done) Registry: <http://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-well-known-tokens/uri-well-known-tokens.xml> 73604 1 robin 2012-09-11 15:15:27 +0000 It's unclear to me from that document who one needs to send those templates to! 73606 2 julian.reschke 2012-09-11 15:22:45 +0000 (In reply to comment #1) > It's unclear to me from that document who one needs to send those templates to! iana@iana.org 73622 3 travil 2012-09-11 17:42:41 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If you have additional information and would like the Editor to reconsider, please reopen this bug. If you would like to escalate the issue to the full HTML Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest title and text for the Tracker Issue; or you may create a Tracker Issue yourself, if you are able to do so. For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Resolved-WORKSFORME Change Description: no registration performed Rationale: the registry URL changed. It's now: http://www.iana.org/assignments/about-uri-tokens/about-uri-tokens.xml It appears that someone has already beaten me to this task, as the link above currently defines: * about:legacy-compat * about:srcdoc * about:blank * about:invalid You note that the definition for about:blank entry should be updated. Can you please check the above link and confirm if this is still true? Thanks. 73623 4 julian.reschke 2012-09-11 17:49:12 +0000 I think the registration of about:blank should point to the HTML spec. I also think that the other two HTML related registrations *should* point to the W3C spec. 73624 5 travil 2012-09-11 17:52:29 +0000 OK, I can certainly ask to have those changed. Thanks! 73726 6 eoconnor 2012-09-12 21:44:24 +0000 about:blank is defined by RFC 6694; no additional registration for it is required. 121152 7 mike 2015-06-17 03:09:29 +0000 Unless somebody's going to take an action on actually doing something for this, it should be moved to resolved=wontfix as being a nice-to-have that nobody cares enough about to actually take responsibility for. 125948 8 travil 2016-04-20 16:32:45 +0000 HTML5.1 Bugzilla Bug Triage: Won't Fix I tend to agree with hober and MikeSmith.
