One of the key points I raised (last year) was the proposal to use
"real" URNs for the vocabulary terms.
This solves the problem of interoperability as the terms will be
unique (ie global) and "well managed".
(see for example, the IETF URN Registry [1])
An example from the NAWS presentation (slide 13) shows a ValueListURN
of "NIEM-L-DoDAF:US:SE:CA:OV1:Alerting" and some values. A better
(global) approach would be to define this identifier as a URN, with a
URN prefix.
If these vocabulary terms are going to be around for a long time, and
have concrete behaviour attached, then they deserve such formal
treatment.
