"End of message"?

"End of method"; that's the "method" part of a URL.

I'd have called that "protocol".  At least that's what java.net.URL 
calls it, and I just assume that Sun is very much in love with standards, 
so I could imagine they picked that term from the appropriate RFC.

In RFC parlance that's called <scheme>.
