Tony-- This is a good point, but it seems somewhat orthogonal to many of the points in the previous discussion, since if we bring a potential change of URI ownership into the picture it's not clear that hash URIs continue to denote the same thing either. I think the important point is the idea that the URI owner gets to say what it denotes. --Frank On Jun 7, 2007, at 10:10 AM, Hammond, Tony wrote: > > "This document hereby declares, establishes and records the fact > that the > URI http://www.ihmc.us/users/phayes/PatHayes is owned by Pat Hayes > and is > intended by Pat Hayes to rigidly denote himself, ..." > > Yes, very nice.
