A redirect doesn't violate that guarantee, both people still know that they are going to end up interacting with the same "thing" (as long as the redirect is consistent). -----Original Message----- From: Bullard, Claude L (Len) [mailto:clbullar@ingr.com] Sent: Mon 8/5/2002 7:45 AM To: Joshua Allen; Miles Sabin; www-tag@w3.org Cc: Subject: RE: URIs: resources and contradictions was: Re: httpRange proposed text Errm... no. The fact that URLs get redirected is only one exception to that. They don't have that confidence. They have that expectation. It is reinforced positively or negatively everytime they use any given URL and they get different degrees of confidence for specific URLs used over time. len From: Joshua Allen [mailto:joshuaa@microsoft.com] When two people use the same http URL, they have a reasonable degree of confidence that they will be connecting to the same "thing", and they don't even have to dereference the site to have that confidence.
