Subject: Version enclosures
as indicated in the draft strawmanas an issue xri://(http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xri/download.php/1614/xri-unified-strawman-draft-05.pdf)[:0.5#line122) "[ISSUE: Using parentheses for versioning complicates things since parentheses are also used for cross-references.]" I would like to suggest that we replace the "(",")" enclosure with "[]" (square brace), as it is the most visually distinct character from "()". This releases the ambiguity of the reader somewhat (knowing immediuately whether one is referencing a version of an object or a reference to it). Important when one must make reference to an authority, rather than a "copy" on other non-authoratative source. appologies if this was intentially left for further discussion later. I have been a bit "unplugged" recently :-( --- peterd
