I was going to tell Karl "it already does say this"
but the relevant text is in the future directions
section for data formats, not for identifiers.
In fact, I think I made the same comment in my
review of the 28 Sep draft... ah... no, that was...
❑ 3.8 Future...
* ❑ There remain open questions regarding Web
interactions.
* ❑ suggests once we answer the open
questions, we'll be done. Not so; the
web will continue to evolve as long as
it's usefully in operation. suggest:
* ❑ Web interactions are evolving
beyond HTTP 1.1 and the other
traditional Internet protocols
(FTP, SMTP).
My comment on 2.7 was...
❑ 2.7 URI future directions
* ❑ 2.7.2. Assertion that two URIs identify the
same resource
* ❑ move under 2.2.3. Indirect
Identification
That might be too big of a change to make without chatting
with the group, so it might not be worth the bother.
Feel free to disregard this input altogether... it would
be silly to have outstanding dissent from Karl in our
request for Proposed Rec over something like this, but
there does come a point where it's time to stop fidgeting
around with the document.
