Subject: RE: [xri-editors] Important new XRID issue
We can do this kind of enhancement forever. People will always be able to think of ways to specialize XRID elements in reasonable ways, Service probably even more than Authority. And this _is_ a special case - we could just as easily say we wanted different authorities for ranges of persistent identifiers, or an authority that returns XDI style descriptors or whatever. At this point our priority should be releasing a spec, which means only fixing things that are clearly broken. I don't think this qualifies as broken.
