We were playing with some simile data in haystack today and discussed briefly the fact that simile is defining URIs in namespace http://www.mit.edu/simile/ that are not http-GETtable---ie, they return 404 not founds. Apparently there has been some discussion of this approach but I don't think I've weighed in. If we don't ever plan for the URIs to be http-GETtable, there's no reason for us to use http URIs: we could do urn://www.mit.edu/simile.... This would avoid browsers getting confused. Alternatively (and this is the approach I'd like to see) it would be nice if we had a web server that returned some useful RDF when we tried to resolve such URIs---just in case the requestor was able to cope with that (as haystack can) -David
