http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/2003/lc1209/issues.html?view=wg&closed=1&expert=1&editorial=1&clarification=1&stateAgreed=1&stateDeclined=1&stateSubsumed=1

stickler7 : Section 3.4, para 2: URI ownership questions

(tag notes the links seem to be broken)

DC: doc has not changed much in this area. Not overtaken by events. 
NW: since we are doing a second LC, do we need to respond to this one?
CL: Yes
DC: Nice to do so, but not required. Argument was not persuasive.
NW: Propose this is not on critical path for last call.

stickler9 : Good practice note on URIs without fragids?

CL 3.3.1 says "One cannot carry out an HTTP POST operation using a URI that identifies a secondary resource."

NW: Overtaken by events. Document now adresses this.

hawke1 : Proposed good practice note on looking inside protocol interactions

NW: Overtaken by events

hawke2 : Section 2: Full agreement not required for communication

NW: Overtaken by events

hawke7 : 2.7.2. Assertion that Two URIs Identify the Same Resource

NW: We have more explicit text about URI overloading now.
DC: We tried, ask if its good enough. Adopted some suggested text.

NW: Overtaken by events

weitzner1 : Proposed summary format

DC: editorial

kopecky5 : 4.5.5 More info on qnames, fragids, ns docs

DC: spoke to kopecky, response was:
30 Mar 2004 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webarch-comments/2004JanMar/1071.html

RF: yes, we identified one useful mapping. Section 4.5.5 
"One particularly useful mapping in the case of flat namespaces is to combine the namespace URI, a hash ("#"), and the local name; see the section on XML namespaces for more examples." -- 4.5.5 (near http://www.w3.org/TR/webarch/#xml-formats)

NW: Overtaken by events

kopecky6 : 4.5.6 What's the conclusion?

CL: conclusion is someone else is fixing it
DC: Concluion is 'stay tuned'

NW: Overtaken by events

diwg1 : Add scenario(s) with dynamically generated URI

DC: We need to discuss this. No examples with a ? in the URI for example
CL: agreed. Prefer to ask them for more details

NW:  should discuss this one also
CL: yes, this is a good comment

schema2 : [Section 2] Unwise confluence of identification and retrievability

CL, NW: Yes
ACTION DC: ask Schema WG for a slot soon
NW: prefer Friday slot

dd to 'still needs work' pile

schema5 : [3.3.1] Inconsistency with RFC2396bis about frag id meaning?

NW: thats why we said should not must
DC: Add to telcon pile

schema16 : [4.5.1] Section on when to use XML formats underdeveloped
