It should be noted that Felding and most others do not require that the
relation from URIs onto Resources be injective -- that is, two different
URIs may (and often do) refer to the same Resource. The object
publishing methodology seems to imply (or assume?) an injective relation
between URIs and Resources. This is not a necessary assumption.
Actually, what Clark says here does not contradict what L. Daniel said.
L. Daniel said "Every Resource should be identified by a URL" -- he
did not say "one and only one URL"; therefore, his words did not say
injectivity was a requirement. Hence, it is needless for Clark to say
that no one requires it. There was no such claim.
Just a point of logic.
