I was left a bit confused myself.  Actually, the question of paths and relative
URIs and such reminds me, in a sense, of what is happening in the various
financial XML consortia I'm involved in, because version 1.0 starts out being
about data, then version 2.0 suddenly needs to add a standard process to make it
workable.  I'd like to skip the version 1.0 problem here and suggest that we
need to explicitly describe the process for dealing with paths and relative
URIs.  You may well already feel the same way anyway, but if not, let's discuss
it.

     Cheers,
          Tony.
