Hi,
In the note in <http://www.w3.org/TR/xproc/#cv.request> in the
current CR from late November, one can read:
In the case of simple "GET" requests, implementors are encouraged
to support as many protocols as practical. In particular, pipeline
authors may attempt to use p:http-request to load documents with
computed URIs using the file: scheme.
It sounds quite weird to me. What does GET mean for another
protocol than HTTP? In the same way, the first sentence in §7.1.10,
p:http-request says "The p:http-request step provides for interaction
with resources over HTTP or related protocols." What is a "related
protocol?" I can understand HTTPS, but which other one?
Regards,
