resource types are handled by the manager of the CableLabs' Assigned
Names and Numbers registry.

1. Introduction
CableLabs is a non-profit research and development consortium that is
dedicated to pursuing new cable telecommunications technologies and
to helping its cable operator members integrate those technical
advancements into their business objectives. Within CableLabs,
specification activities are organized into projects such as
DOCSIS(R), PacketCable(TM), and OpenCable(TM), and technical work is
conducted within focus teams. Product vendors, manufacturers, and
cable operator members are invited to join the focus teams that
create technical specifications.
Occasionally, CableLabs specification efforts require identifiers in
a managed namespace so that they are unique and persistent. To
ensure that the uniqueness is absolute, the registration of a
specific Uniform Resource Name (URN) [RFC2141] Namespace Identifier
