Three questions, 

  1) If we now expect quotes around tags, are we still meant to understand % as
     an escape character within tags?

  2) Which of the following do I need to support, and which is the "approved"      
     method of accessing gopher?

         href="gopher://gopher.micro.umn.edu:70/00/Some Stuff"
     or
         href="gopher://gopher.micro.umn.edu:70/00/Some%20Stuff"
     or 
         href=gopher://gopher.micro.umn.edu:70/00/Some%20Stuff

  3) Is the % meant to act as an escape character in search strings? ie

         href="http://slacvm.slac.stanford.edu/FIND/PARTICLE?PI%nn"

     meant to find entries for PI+ ? (where nn is the ascii code for +).

Just wondering....Tony
