IANA WebSocket Protocol Registry has broken link to WAMP specification

https://www.iana.org/assignments/websocket/websocket.xml lists http://wamp.ws/spec as the WAMP specification URL, but said link is currently broken (it currently redirects to https://wamp-proto.org/spec, which serves an XML error file with code "NoSuchKey").

Hi @max-cura Thanks for pointing out! If you know who can correct it to https://wamp-proto.org/spec.html will be cool. Otherwise we'll try to fix it on our owns.

IANA listed @oberstet as the 'Reference' for the protocol, which after looking through some RFCs seems to indicate that they're the point-of-contact for that protocol?

Otherwise my best guess would just be shoot an email to the official IANA address.

@oberstet Hey, Tobias! Can you fix it in iana docs?

yeah, long ago, but I registered wamp early on in 2012. anyways, looking at the registry infos, I can see these errors rgd WAMP:

  1. Link

The link is broken, it should point to https://wamp-proto.org/spec.html

  1. Name

rather than simply wamp (which was used for v1 of WAMP), implementations actually use wamp.2.json and generally the subprotocol name template wamp.2.<serializer>.[batched], thus, the whole name-prefix wamp should be understood to be registered / claimed - I don't know if the IANA number registry and IETF RFC6455 whould even allow for that.

practically, above hasn't been a problem. at least not to my awareness ..

  1. Contact

The contact is wrong

yes, that would be required. we need to contact the IANA number registry
