In every other forum I simply make up the SRV prefixes myself and stick
them in the draft. The chance of accidental collision is insignificant.
There are far more Windows applications than Internet communication
protocols yet people seem to be able to cope with a 3 letter filetype
extension astonishingly well.
Bad example. Very bad example. The number of collisions with 3 letter
filetypes is high enough that I'll call "copes well" flat out false.
