anchor parameter, was: Last Call: draft-nottingham-http-link-header (Web Linking) to Proposed Standard

Unless there are really strong use cases, I think that the anchor= 
attribute should be dropped. In practice, implementations today ignore 
that attribute, which would mean that, e.g., a rel=stylesheet;anchor=a 
link would fail to have the right effect. If it is kept, then the right 
behaviour for how this should integrate with style sheet linking should be 
defined in great detail.

Could you please elaborate what the right effect is, and how current 
implementations fail for that?


It appears to me that anchor is not relevant for every single link 
relation, but that doesn't mean it's not useful at all.

Well unless I'm mistaken, if we have a resource A that has:

   Link: B; rel=stylesheet; anchor=C

...then that means we have a link:

   C - stylesheet - B

...which means that applying the style sheet to A would be wrong. Yet that 
is what UAs that support Link: would presumably do.


Of the five UAs I checked, two seem to implement the Link header. Both 
fail to consider the anchor.


To make Link headers useful in processing by HTML user agents, lots of 
additional implementation work is needed anyway; so I don't see this as 
a big problem.


That being said, it probably would be good if the spec gave an example 
that anchor can be more than a fragment identifier, and thus recipients 
need to handle it -- it's not optional.


It appears to me that anchor is not relevant for every single link 
relation, but that doesn't mean it's not useful at all.


I don't see how it can't be relevant... if the link relation is between 
two resources, then acting as if it was a relationship between others 
seems wrong.


Right; it *is* relevant if it's more than a fragment identifier, and it 
would be good if the spec stated that clearly.


BR, Julian

I'd be suprised if we sold more than a 100 shirts.   I see this primarily
as a service to attendees, not as a way to generate money.  You get a shirt
for free, if you want a 2nd one for whatever reason, you can buy it.  The
IETF gets a few $$ for the trouble.

Hi,
Though, I think IETF has been always in the lavanguardia of fashion, I think 
Henk is absolutely right.  Let people have their t-shirt if they want to. As 
long as there is no risk for the IETF.

Who would that hurt? The money goes for a good cause - making the Internet work.

Cheers,

Jonne.

And, maybe more importantly, the message of IETF's work spreads.   In
the case of IETF 74.shirt, it's the IPv6 transition message that
spreads everytime someone wears their shirt.

Great!
