I have added a paragraph to the introduction (slightly less informally phrased): This specification does not attempt to specify which strings in a document are considered URIs. That is the responsibility of each XML vocabulary. The question addressed by this specification is: given a relative URI in an XML document, what base URI is it resolved against? Please let us know whether you find this satisfactory. -- Richard -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.
