The definition is in 2396" ... when what I actually said, as seen in the linked archive, is "The results will be ambiguous otherwise, and its not the other system's fault, and its not because the definition of resource is vague or tied to any one model. The definition is in 2396" ... which is the opposite of what Sandro implies I said. There is nothing vague about the definition of resource. What some people complain about is that the definition is not restrictive enough for their own project, but that is only because the restrictions they desire are invalid given the domain of "resource" that might be identified by a URI within IETF specifications. ....Roy
