Subject: RE: [xri] priority attribute question


Good point about the xri.net XRDS. I don’t know about others via Barx, ooTao, FreeXRI, etc.

 

Since it will be relatively common for a WD10 XRDS to have a CanonicalID element with a priority attribute, I’m thinking we should put a backwards compatability note in the spec recommending that implementations accept it. What do you think?

OK, then this means that all of the XRDs being served by xri.net are broken w/r/t WD11ED06… they all have a priority attribute on the CanonicalID element.

 

I don’t think anyone else is serving out Canonical IDs now, are they?

Ah, Gabe, good catch, that’s my mistake. The fact that the CanonicalID element allows the priority attribute was a legacy of drafts before ED03 (or ED04, I can’t remember) when the CanonicalID element cardinality was zero-or-more.

 

Now that it is zero-or-one, neither the CanonicalID or CanonicalEquivID should accept the priority attribute.

 

BTW, are you going to also put out an updated XSD schemas for XRDS and XRD when you are done? All these final fixes should be reflected in both even if the RelaxNG version will be normative.

 

Thanks,

I see the barx resolver returns me an XRD with a priority attribute on the CanonicalID element.

 

I was a bit surprised to see that since section 4.3.3 of WD11/ED 06 doesn’t mention CanonicalID as an element that can have a priority attribute and neither does section 4.2.3. I *do* notice that the XSD schema from WD11/ED 06 allows it.

 

So which is it? What elements can have the priority attribute?
