Subject: Update to Abstract Identifier Architecture page
Per my action item from the XRI TC telecon this week, I posted an update to our Abstract Identifier Architecture page: http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xri/AbstractIdentifierArchitecture Key changes: 1) As pointed out by Dan Connolly in his post to the W3C TAG public mailing list... http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2008Sep/0083.html ...we had not stated an implicit assumption that our definitions pertained in the context of a specific communications protocol. I fixed this. 2) I added a graph diagram to help make it very explicit how abstract identifiers, concrete identifiers, resource descriptors, and resource representations are related. 3) I added tables showing how this conceptual architecture applies to DNS, DOI, and XRI. 4) I added one key conclusion these definitions lead to, which underscores why doing metadata discovery via the same protocol as resource representation retreival is such as challenge. Comments/suggestions/improvements welcome. =Drummond
