I could have been clearer. The names can be duplicates, not the rest of the
entry. So someone comes along and registers web.alt with a pointer to her
thing, then someone else comes along with a different thing but also calls it
web.alt, and we another entry in the registry.
What does the registry do or prevent? Is it meant to be a Yellow Pages of
non-IETF naming ? If so, why should we run it? If it accomplishes something
else, what ?
If people want to avoid collisions, it gives them an idea of what's
already in use somewhere. Of if you run into ITU.ALT, you can (give or
take link rot) find out what it is supposed to do.
