No, the issue is what URI-references name. I think it's pretty unambiguously clear and I've seen Roy Fielding, Al Gilman, and many others say the same thing. I guess we could take it to the TAG if we wanted to be absolutely sure, but I'm not sure how they can say anything different than what the spec says. > Have I understood you correctly?

I think the question is answered (feel free to look at the text in RFC2396 and decide for yourself). But yes, I think we should discourage their use as a way to stop things from getting worse. -- [ "Aaron Swartz" ; <mailto:me@aaronsw.com> ; <http://www.aaronsw.com/> ]Received on Monday, 18 February 2002 09:55:33 EST
