Yes. we are giving people link types, and anchor roles and explainers and N-ary links. That is all flexibility for content description. We should not offer the same flexibility for linking infrastructure (locator languages, URL formats, and the other stuff that people have to write code to resolve, and where we can't see a way that the extension could automatically work on a new client). I think IDref, and TEI locators give us what we want. I think Fragment IDs are the way they should be put in the attribute values, too. No separate address types. -- David _________________________________________ David Durand dgd@cs.bu.edu \ david@dynamicDiagrams.com Boston University Computer Science \ Sr. Analyst http://www.cs.bu.edu/students/grads/dgd/ \ Dynamic Diagrams --------------------------------------------\ http://dynamicDiagrams.com/ MAPA: mapping for the WWW \__________________________
