I'd like to understand why this isn't considered a problem. IRIs that contain spaces can't be used with the schemaLocation attribute, but IRIs in general can, as far as I can see. It seems to me that IRIs with spaces have disadvantages in other contexts too (eg in plain text), and that we should either not allow spaces in IRIs or live with the problem, rather than not using IRIs at all. -- RichardReceived on Thursday, 28 November 2002 19:37:50 UTC
