Do the quotes around the first sentence indicate that it's all that's proposed goes in the WSA spec? Or is it the whole paragraph? I think that even a few words about *why* it's good to only identify with URIs, or at least suitable references to the relevant principles in AWWW, would help. e.g. http://www.w3.org/TR/webarch/#pr-global-id http://www.w3.org/TR/webarch/#pr-use-uris Other than that, it looks fine!! It looks like this issue is nearly resolved then, and that's great. But again[1], I feel I have to point out that what's being resolved, while important, is largely orthogonal to the issue that was accepted. So could you please create a new issue? Thanks.
