Document shepherd writeup:

1. Summary

The responsible AD is Barry Leiba, who is also acting as document
shepherd.

This is an individual submission that describes a URN namespace
for the Open IPTV Forum (OIPF) for naming persistent resources
defined within OIPF specifications.  It is following the rules
set out in RFC 3406, which requires IETF Review for assignment of
a formal URN namespace.  It is an Informational document.

2. Review and Consensus

As required by RFC 3406, the document was posted for review on
the urn-nid mailing list.  There was one comment, which the
author responded to.  Little discussion is expected for these
sorts of registration documents, and, indeed, little discussion
has happened.  This is a straightforward request from an
organization for a matching URN namespace.  The document
describes the intended use and benefits of the namespace in
sufficient detail, as required by RFC 3406.

3. Intellectual Property

Each author has stated that to their direct, personal knowledge,
in conformance with BCPs 78 and 79, there is no IPR related to
this document.

4. Other Points

None.
