The W3C specifications are not perfect anyway, and there are unspoken agendas buried in them. There is a lot of great thought in those specifications and the goals behind them, primarily the network effect, but there are places where they do not directly suit the long term delivery of digital content. It is a requirement for acceptance and use that Fedora implement a facade that conforms to the W3C specifications to our best efforts (or a least support other applications that do). But I don't take them as gospel, just exercise care in tilting at windmills.
Regardless, this is a good discussion thread. -- Dan Davis On 8/3/2011 10:14 AM, Asseg, Frank wrote: > On 08/03/11 16:04, Stephen Bayliss wrote: >> And strictly speaking aren't they different URIs since the query parameters >> will be different? > Yes! that's true, according to the spec these are part of the URI > http://labs.apache.org/webarch/uri/rfc/rfc3986.html#query > so all the problems i described are not actually problems ;) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.
