Michael Shapiro said this: > There is an implied assumption in the SGML-based URC > specifiction that URNs resolve to URCs. I think that this is a > fundamental mistake. URNs should not be required to resolve to > URCs. They should be allowed to resolve to any resource. But you will also notice that Ron has several different types of URC syntax. In this case we could just as easily state a reverseal of the above: Anything that is returned during the resolution of a URN can be considered a URC. A URL all by itself is just a very small URC. A null string is just a null URC. Its just semantics.... -MM -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Life is a game. Someone wins and someone loses.
