RE: Mention IRIs in the primer

Thanks for your comment.  The WS Description Working Group tracked this
as a Last Call comment LC303 [1].  The Working Group agreed to fix the
problem by adopting the proposal at [2] along with the amendments at
[3].

If we don't hear otherwise within two weeks, we will assume this
satisfies your concern.
