That's a bit of a faux pas. The spirit of the contemporary view is that the distinction between the taxonomies is melting away into something a little more grounded by ten years of Web implementation. Really, we need an awful lot more documents like uri-clarification [1]. It was a fair start, and there are a lot of questions to be addressed, but I don't think that it has gone any way to resolving discussions such as this one before they start. I'm not even 100% sure what the statuses are of the groups at the W3C and IETF charted to deal with this. [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/uri-clarification/ -- Kindest Regards, Sean B.
