Subject: RE: [xri] Human Readable Resource Identifiers
Good catch, Gabe. Perhaps we should also cite
this, even informatively, in XRI Syntax 2.1 as guidance about encoding certain
common chars that need escaping in XRI-normal form. =Drummond From: Gabe Wachob
[mailto:gabe.wachob@amsoft.net] From Norm Walsh and Richard Tobin: http://xml.coverpages.org/draft-walsh-tobin-hrri-00.txt Seems sorta like the XRI -> IRI escaping rules for any
unstructured identifier:
2. Motivation
Several XML-related specifications use strings which are interpreted as IRIs, but which allow the use of characters which must be escaped in a legal IRI, such as delimiters and a few ASCII characters. Examples include XML System Identifiers[4], the href attribute in XLink[5], and XML Base attributes[6]. These specifications all describe, with slightly different wording, the same algorithm for converting that string to an IRI. The purpose of this RFC is to provide a single definition which can be referenced by these specifications, and to provide a name for strings of this type: Human Readable Resource Identifiers.
