Re: [SMIL3.0] Use IRIs instead of URIs ( LC-1825)

Hello Tierry,

Many thanks for your response, which looks great, thanks!

BTW, if you would like me to produce tests with IRIs for SMIL,
I'd be glad to do so. I'm not a SMIL expert, so what I need is
a test that tests the resolution of some URI (US-ASCII only).
I can then produce tests with various languages and encodings.
For examples, please see http://www.sw.it.aoyama.ac.jp./2005/iritest/.
For background, please see
http://www.sw.it.aoyama.ac.jp./2007/pub/IUC31-iri/.

Regards,    Martin.
