In this case, relative URI references > absolutize to syntactically illegal absolute URIs The main feature of "fixed base" is that it always provides a valid absolute URI + frag id for RDF (and other such systems) to use to make assertions about some resource identified by the namespace URI. So having an illegal URI probably isn't what is wanted here. David
