Hi, I have been looking at the syntax of URCs and need to clear up some issues. The only "internet-draft" proposal I have seen is the "Trivial URC Syntax: urc0" by Hoffman and Daniel - This proposal seems to return marked-up URLs for the user/browser to decide which one to access. Others I have read about include a series of Attributes and values (some following the Text Encoding Initiative). Question - will there be a series of URC syntaxes? If so, will this be confusing for the browser to decide, since the URN will point to an unknown number of possible URC specifications? - Or does the URC identify itself (typeing) so the the user/browser can then decide to handle it or just return the URC spec. Question - is the URA proposal just another URC? Question - we would like to create a URC spec for query-able information sources - should it be a URC or should we define a URQ (that is specific for information sources that provide a query interface - as opposed to a "traditional" URC that seems to favour static documents) Thanks for your time... Cheers...
