I was also considering the > possibility of encoding body content in the SMS URL as used in the mailto > scheme (e.g. <sms:+44777123456?body=Some%20text.>) I would steer clear of specifying the body because it might be interpreted to mean that resolving that identifier should send the message. Identifiers should identify, not take action. Also, in the work we do at my company, we've found the HTTP URI scheme quite appropriate for identifying SMS end points. For example, http://mycarrier.example.org/subscriber/222333444/sms where HTTP POST can be used to send messages to that subscriber. MB -- Mark Baker, Chief Science Officer, Planetfred, Inc.
