Show me a spec that says "Nothing will ever change, *ever*" and I'll
show you hubris. The only reasonable expectation that anyone has is
that things that were there yesterday might be gone tomorrow, and that
new things'll come along to replace them. That's as true for URI
schemes as it is for resources.
Personally I'm looking forward to Michael Mealling finally getting
around to releasing his DDDS resolver plugin ...
Cheers,
Miles
