Re "http://www.w3.org/TV/TVWeb/TVWeb-URI-Requirements-19981126.html" (Minor note: RFC 2119 isn't really appropriate for use in a requirements document; the MUST/MAY/SHOULD levels apply to implementation compliance with a protocol specification, not specification compliance with protocol goals.) You identify a TV broadcast content model (service, event, component, and fragment) but haven't justified the need for a URL scheme to span them all. TV channels and TV programs are different kinds of resources, and might need entirely different schemes, since they have very different kinds of access methods and specifications. The TVWeb-URI-Requirements seem to be written presuming that there's only one URL scheme. Larry -- http://www.parc.xerox.com/masinter
