Other thoughts on IRIs

I think we decided to avoid specific reference to IRIs in the RDF spec, so 
this note is not significant except as a small additional datum.

I note a TAG discussion that started a couple of weeks or so ago that 
suggests some confusion about using IRIs in specifications, starting with...

   http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2003Mar/0033.html

(Later, Henry Thompson makes a comment concerning a "one step behind" 
guideline:

   http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2003Mar/0037.html

which is interesting in this context because the proposed IRI spec is, I 
understand, intended to be an RFC rather than W3C REC track specification.)
