RE: COMURI

Laufer,

I like opaque URIs with salt and pepper: compact mnemonic URIs :-)

Hi Tomas, Hi all,
I think that this is an issue that has already been discussed a lot of times by the community. Pros and Cons.
Like others in the group, I also prefer opaque URIs.
Thank you.
Best Regards.
Laufer

You are right about domain names, but it is my experience that
practically no-one types in anything more than domain+TLD in a browser
and most people don't even do that. And are you serious about typing in
IP addresses?
