I'd like to make a clarification about my own comments, and request one: I believe that Martin's first (and probably later) messages(s) referred to URL's, and I responded without noticing, since they were on the uri or urc list. I personally believe that this is really NOT an issue we should pursue for URL's, for which I believe wewe've made our decisions and moved beyond that. I do, however, believe that this is an issue which MUST be pursued at whatever UR* level at which humans interact directly with the information, either supplying it or reading (etc) it, despite the very real difficulties which that presents. My personal suspicion is that URNs are perhaps the right entities for which this issue is relevant. Is there general agreement that we're not trying to redefine URLs? If so, is there any agreement as to which UR* this discussion should apply and (perhaps) where it should therefore take place? Jim
