Subject: RE: [xri] XRI discovery -vs- resolution
Discovery would be more suited to finding out the available services on an authority (bare I-name / I-number). Whenever a service selection criterion is present, I think the term "resolution" is appropriate. So, there are a few operations on any given XRI: Discover(authority) => set of services + canonical IDs + provider ID etc. Resolve(xri, type, mtype) => set of services (mostly one) that matches the criteria. =wil (http://xri.net/=wil) > -----Original Message----- > From: Victor Grey [mailto:victor@idcommons.org] > Sent: Tuesday, December 19, 2006 12:00 AM > To: xri@lists.oasis-open.org > Subject: Re: [xri] XRI discovery -vs- resolution > > +1 > =vg > > > Chasen, Les wrote: > > I was wondering what everyone thinks about the idea of instead of > > using the term XRI resolution we start calling it XRI discovery?
