/ Steinar Bang <sb@metis.no> was heard to say:
| Lately I've seen URLs marked in this way on USENET articles:
| 
| <ULink URL= "http://www.mico.org/">MICO - a GNU ORB</ULink> - being
| used by the KDE desktop project
| 
| Does anyone know if this is some sort of new standard?  Or if someone
| is trying to introduce a new convention?  Or maybe someone has been
| cutting and pasting from an SGML or XML document of some sort?

That's the URL linking element used in the DocBook DTD; see
http://nwalsh.com/docbook/

                                        Cheers,
