I got some not-so-good news from Mark Nottingham re the Profile header draft. The 6-8 week timeframe I had in mind is not likely. I thought the draft was stable and just waiting some trigger to go to IETF last call, but it turns out there's non-trivial discussion of the relationship between links in Atom and links in HTML, and whether a link type registry should be created. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/2007JanMar/thread.html#msg129 So with some regret, (a) I suggest we re-open the issue (b) I suggest I should take out the HTTP links section of the spec (after the last-call review freeze is over) (b) I propose to postpone the issue, since a URI-based linking feature in HTTP such as the Profile header field is not yet stable/ratified/standardized http://www.w3.org/2004/01/rdxh/spec#issue-http-header-links -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/Received on Thursday, 22 February 2007 00:01:09 GMT
