   RE: [xml-dev] URLs and URIs (was XLink and mixed vocabulary design)

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Dare to say less.  Say URL.  A substantial and working 
majority of the programmers and even the laity know 
what that means without having to look it up.

BTW:  Everyone is aware, I trust, that Gen-X is the 
name of an expert system developed by General Electric?
They've had that name for at least twenty years, and 
likely trademarked it.

I believe that what you mean is something like 
"HTTP-scheme URIs which are normally dereferenceable unless something's 
wrong."  But since there is room for confusion, you should probably say 
so explicitly. -Tim
