Not sure what you're asking for, but...

If you see a reference like:

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/36443/
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/36443/foobar.baz

You can always ask for this, and see the (possible) revisions:

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=36443

As far as I know, all these are equivalent (depending upon your
browser configuration/settings):

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/36529
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/36529/
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/36529//\\
