Re: {minutes} HTML WG issue tracking telecon 2008-07-10

Related to the IRI/URI/URL/URL reference discussion

http://krijnhoetmer.nl/irc-logs/html-wg/20080710#l-386
[18:33] <robburns> The spec actually says it uses a different  
definition of URL than the related RFCs. If that's not he case, then  
that note should be removed.

http://krijnhoetmer.nl/irc-logs/html-wg/20080710#l-408
[18:37] <robburns> "The term "URL" in this specification is used in a  
manner distinct from the precise technical meaning it is given in RFC  
3986. Readers familiar with that RFC will find it easier to read this  
specification if they pretend the term "URL" as used herein is really  
called something else altogether."

[18:41] <robburns> q+ to say that the problem is that the draft says  
it redefines it and yet Ian and DanC's test indicate it has not been  
redefined (so why create confusion for the reader of the draft)
