Right on. Hmm. I suppose at the very worst we could use "yaml".
But something a bit more generic (so XML fellas can use it too)
would be preferable.
ideas:
type
domain
inet (internet)
zoom (just for fun)
dbi (domain based identifier)
dbn (domain based name)
nmsp (namespace... although I don't like this as much)
rdns (reverse dns ... urn:rdns:com.clarkevans.yaml,2002;MyPackage)
class (object's class)
dnscls (domain name system class )
Buggers. This is tough.
