Subject: RE: [xri] How can http: URIs meet URN requirements?
the argument being made for accomplishing persistence in the http: scheme requires the a domain (at some arbitrary level), carry a policy of persistence. thus, if a 2nd level name (eg: xri.net) stated that it will guarantee persistence in it's namespace. thus http://peterd.xri.net will never get re-assigned. I cannot say i fully agree, but that is the "solution" which has been discussed. =peterd On Aug 14, 2008, at 3:50 AM, Drummond Reed wrote: > So here's the issue: the TAG has asserted (back during the OASIS > vote in > May) that all XRI requirements can be met by HTTP identifiers.
