Robert,

It's been a few weeks since this came up.  I was wondering if you'd be
able to give some kind of estimate on when you might have a chance to
document what you had in mind for mozilla/firefox/thunderbird.  No
pressure, of course, I just don't want this issue to stall out for lack
of discussion.

 Yeah, for now I'm going to keep this bidi code off in an out of the way
 corner in the Abdera CVS until there's any more movement.  Now that I've
 addressed a short term need I've had on my list for a while, I'll be
 holding off at least a few weeks to see what Sayre comes up with before
 deciding whether to update the I-D and I'll hold off making any further
 updates to Abdera until after the WG makes a clear decision.

 Well I'm glad somebody pointed it out because I certainly missed it.
 Anyway, for now I'm just checking for an unprefixed dir attribute. If
 and when RFC 4287 is ever updated I'll ammend my code accordingly.

 Regards

 I know there's no such thing :-)... which is precisely why the code I

 There's no such thing. (Except perhaps with this new XHTML
 Modularization madness, but that's best ignored.)

 



Re: How to do RESTful SEARCH (was Re: Adding POST capability to atom:link)

This is an interesting assertion about REST.  I don't yet agree with it as
stated though I might after further discussion and elaboration.  To provide
a possible counter-example, I always found the HTTP SEARCH proposal
http://www.greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/draft-reschke-webdav-search-latest.html
to be RESTful because
 - The results of a search are returned as a set of resource identifiers


I'm not sure exactly what you mean by that Lisa, but AFAICT, the
results of a SEARCH request does not have an identifier.

A RESTful solution would be publish a form that could be used by a
client to construct a URI that would return the search results (with
GET, of course).

Cheers,

Mark.

I still have something coming. The IETF meeting means the secretariat 
won't process a draft right now.
