Hi Jerome, I am curious in reading more about your proposal for URI parsing? I had to devise something similar in a project I worked earlier this year, but I felt I could have been simpler. It would be nice if a single URI template could be used both for expanding URIs but also parsing (something like http://example.org/{a:[a-zA-Z0-9_+-]+}/ where the left side, i.e. to the left of ':', is used for the expanding and the right side for parsing. regards, -- yuri
