It's even better than that -- the way we're talking about using the schema-identifying URI in the Z39.50 request, you're not even _allowed_ to go to example.org to get the schema: the string is an opaque identifier that merely happens to look like an address. Your application is supposed to Just Know what that identifier means -- i.e. the schema definition is meant to be hardwired into the program. So you get what you ask for and then some :-) _/|_ _______________________________________________________________ /o ) \/ Mike Taylor <mike@indexdata.com> http://www.miketaylor.org.uk )_v__/\ "Ask not what fruitbats can do for you.
