If you look at e.g. the "XRI Resolution 2.0" specification you will find that strings starting with "xri://" are used in places where resource i- dentifiers as per RFC 3986/3987 are expected, like in XML namespace de- clarations. This would only be proper if an 'xri' URI/IRI scheme was re- gistered. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
