Gleep The Dragon writes: "After many months of back room wrangling it looks like XNSORG has finally managed to get the legal stuff out of the way so that they can publish the XNS specification. You can pick it up here. In case you haven't heard about this effort, here's how they describe it on the XNS.ORG web site: 'eXtensible Name Service (XNS) is an open, XML-based protocol for digital identity and relationship management. Originally developed by OneName Corporation, it has been released under an open public license to the non-profit XNS Public Trust Organization (XNSORG) to govern on behalf of the Internet community.'"

    They should have picked another name. XNS will always mean to me Xerox Network Systems.
