Hi Larry, Thanks for chiming in.

I looked at section 7.2 in what I believe is the latest Internet- Draft: <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-duerst-iri-bis-07>. That's the section that defines lenient "Web Address" style processing. I see a preprocessing algorithm defined, but I do not see definitions of "parse" or "resolve" algorithms with the inputs and outputs Ian asked for. In fact, the words "parse" and "resolve" do not seem to appear in that section. I think the proposal at the start of this thread is asking for a single term, algorithm, or subsection that has the requested inputs and outputs in each case, and performs the intended task (modulo bugs). > > I'd really really like to hear from Larry or one of the other > IRIbis editors whether this basic approach is acceptable > > As far as process issues in IRIBIS, please check with the chairs, > who are currently Ted Hardie and Marc Blanchet for authoritative > answers. > > My current belief is that the IETF IRI WG will IETF tracker at http://tools.ietf.org/wg/iri/trac/report/1 > , and that the chairs will use the tracker to drive discussion and > resolution. That makes sense as an approach to tracking proposed IRIbis changes. If thethe IRIbis chairs have any guidance that would be welcome as well. Regards, Maciej
