Service URN Labels
The policy for adding top-level service labels is 'Standards Action'.
The policy for assigning labels to sub-services may differ for
each top-level service designation and MUST be defined by the document
describing the top-level service.
To allow use within the constraints of S-NAPTR [ref], all top-level
service names MUST NOT exceed 27 characters.
