Subject: RE: [xri] Question on Tags and Cross References


 

I thought the items previously deferred until XRI 3.0 were now going to be rolled into XRI 2.0, since we need to change the spec and then resubmit for ratification?

On =nika+contact being a proposed XRI 3.0 direct concatenation and the proper 2.0 syntax being =nika/(+contact) I think the XRI TC (or XDI) need to define a profile of XRI usage that standardizes the format for contact information. The way that makes sense to me (to allow delegation without a redirect) is (for 2.0) =nika(+contact), or for (3.0) =nika+contact.  There's going to be a fair number of profiles like this so might be better to just define a mechanism to publish a profile spec on XRI usage.  The XDI dictionary might take care of that, but you probably don't want to introduce a dependency of XRI on XDI (which depends on XRI).  The XDI dictionary could define a mechanism for publishing certain portions of it's content as an XRI pattern profile (or whatever you call it).

=nika+contact  is a proposed XRI 3.0 direct concatenation

The proper 2.0 syntax would be =nika/(+contact)

I am guessing that you intend +contact to be in the XRI path and not a authority sub segment?

Is there any difference between:

=nika+contact and =nika(+contact)

It seems I've seen the two in the wild... and I'm wondering if there is a difference or not?
