Found it. The "URL" version is in idno.xml itself.

So we have 120 instances of "url", and one of "URL". Do we change all 
the existing instances to "URL"?

I have lots of instances of <idno type="url"> in my projects, having 
just taken what I saw in the Guidelines as good practice.

Cheers,
Martin
