Re: [SMIL3.0] Use IRIs instead of URIs

Thanks, Martin. I'll add this to our list of items to approve.

In general, the I18N Core WG supports to adoption of IRI in place of URI 
in XML specifications, so I think it likely that this will garner 
general support in the working group.

Internationalization is an architecture.
It is not a feature.
