Martin, you've explained this a few times on the list, and I have to
admit, this is the first time I've "got it". Yes, this does make sense
as a solution. rel="reply bookmark" would be even better.
Thank you toby, yes it would make sense to add rel-bookmark too, I just
wanted to highlight the proposal ;-)
I still think rel="in-reply-to" has merit - the cases where it
overtakes the other solutions in usefulness are of limited number, but
they do exist. (See Jason's recent message.) In some situations,
admittedly many which go beyond the "normal" definitions of comment
systems, the other solutions just don't cut it. If this is going
beyond the scope of the comments project, then perhaps it is the scope
that is too narrow?
I am beginning to think that the scope is a little narrow, but I think
that (for now) If we (the community) attempt to solve the simplest
problem(just a comment), in a way that everyone can agree on, then that
will give us room to expand the scope a little more to include other
situations.
[some edits...]
<a rel="reply" href="http://someblog/post#comment-001";>link to this</a>
Means:
<http://someblog/post> has a reply <http://someblog/post#comment-001>
I couldn't have put it better myself, I will add the above to the
proposal if that is ok?
Thanks
