AW: Announcement: The "info" URI Scheme - Uri crisis again !

And we are in the midst of uri crisis again !
horray horray !
search for "uri crisis" in this list and you will find all ideas that
are talked about. or "identity crisis"


I would prefer:

>   http://leo.gnowsis.com/mythings/myCar
> maps to:
>   info://leo.gnowsis.com/mythings/myCar

but this is old-school stuff we already had months ago:

	rdfp://leo.gnowsis.com/mythings/myCar


the idea to map all identifiers to a single server is not scaleable.
the idea to build a new system similiar to dns is not very wise.

so every identifier HAS TO CONTAIN a dns hostname and preferably the
hostname is the same as the hostname of the http server that is hosting
the information.

to conclude: if you HAVE to use the same hostname, you can also stick to
http ( and use uriqa et al)


and patrick stickler's uriqa with the different method.
