There are indeed many use cases for URNs based on registered domain names, and I believe there are registrations for top-level URN names where parts of the URN are based on domain names. The technical problem of generalizing is the difficulty in creating a URN based on domain names that is also persistent. Limiting the scope of the "rdns" URN namespace to only YANG modules means that there is a smaller persistency problem to solve and that it can be solved by taking advantage of properties specific to YANG modules. > > If you really want to limit it to YANG module namespaces, maybe it should be > called urn:yang-rdns: or something.
