/ "David Orchard" <david.orchard@bea.com> was heard to say:
|| anyURI data type. I think a reasonable approach would be to say that the
| default comparision function for anyURI is to use the HTTP URI comparison
| algorithm, but that it is overridable by any scheme.
I think a more reasonable approach is to say that the default
comparison function is lexicographic identity. Why should I assume
that in
blort://something.baz/whats-this-for
I can do a case-insensitive comparison of something.baz?
(And if that's not what you meant by defaulting to the HTTP algorithm,
then I'm confused.)
Be seeing you,
norm
