This is interesting, but it doesn't prove anything more than that the basic assumption of "How to compare URIs" is correct, namely that there are different ways to do it. (starting with the simple codepoint-by-codepoint equivalence used by namespaces). The question that is more interesting: Is there any URI scheme or (not obviously buggy) implementation where URIs such as http://www.example.org/%61 and http://www.example.org/a return different results? I have yet to see something like this. Regards, Martin.
