Re: [Admin] PWP vs. WP design (was Re: Identifying a book on the Web today)

Makoto,

that note is closed and was edited and created by the Digital Publishing Interest Group. The note is an input to this Working Group, but that does not mean that anything in there will necessarily be taken over by the Working group unchanged. We have not yet have any discussion on the PWP in general, and this type of definition in particular, in the Working Group.

You can record an issue in the repository where that note was maintained[1] to be sure that the issue remains recorded. In view of above, I guess that would be the best option. (Actually, I have added a “Note for the WG” label to that issue list for possible future reference.)

I hope this helps

Ivan

These are _not_ final specifications, very far from it; these are mostly outlines for the main areas, stakes in the ground, so to say, with possibly (probably) lots of open issues. Some of those sections may have more technical  content, some of them may not. We also agreed that we would consider the main outlines of WP first and then PWP. This does not mean _finalizing_ anything before the other.

We may or may not discuss the issues right now, but by virtue of being explicitly raised we can be sure that, eventually, those question will be dealt with. Your latest question about multiple URL-s on the same resource is a typical example for this.
