   URIs and XML

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Larry Masinter has a post on www-tag that asks some interesting
questions about how XML and namespace usage:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2002Oct/0248.html

One thing I find interesting is that similar issues apply to pretty much
any URI usages in XML, from DOCTYPE declarations to stylesheet
references to hyperlinks.  I'm not sure that namespaces rate any special
status, but they do raise somewhat more unusual questions about the use
of http URIs in particular.

"attractive nuisance" seems like a nice turn of phrase as well.

Simon St.Laurent - SSL is my TLA
http://simonstl.com may be my URI
http://monasticxml.org may be my ascetic URI
urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.6320 is another possibility altogether
