I agree. My proposal is to split the single name into several fields
(extended information in metadata) such as:

-serviceType (required, rely on hierarchy like error.codes):

  ma.rrd
  ma.sql
  ls.xml
  ls.uddi
  mp.snmp
  mp.cl

-serviceLocation (required, may be hierarchical too):

  abilene
  abilene.internet2.ann_arbor
  geant
  geant.pionier

-implementationLanguage (optional):

  java
  perl
  python

-usedTools (optional)

  bwctl,owamp
  exist-db
  rrdjtool

As far as I remember it was defined on the beginning of the project. Now 
we have only 4 elements in Lookup Info metadata which are not enough.
