Subject: Re: [xri] Removing priority attribute from XRD altogether
just a guess of what Joseph meant, but... That's of course an XPath query for all linked resources with a relationship of "stylesheet". Because there would be no priority attribute to worry with, and because XPath returns results in document order, this simple query would do the right thing and return all of the stylesheet links in the proper order. No further processing would really be necessary. (Granted, "stylesheet" is probably not the best example when talking about XRD, but that's what I took this mean) -will On Aug 30, 2009, at 10:08 PM, Drummond Reed wrote: > Joesph, maybe I've just spent too much time remodelling this > weekend, but > can you unpack for me why /xrd:XRD/xrd:Link[xrd:Rel="stylesheet"] is > pretty > spiffy? > > Thanks, > > =Drummond > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Joseph Anthony Pasquale Holsten >> [mailto:joseph.holsten@cordance.net] >> Sent: Saturday, August 29, 2009 8:17 PM >> To: XRI TC >> Subject: Re: [xri] Removing priority attribute from XRD altogether >> >> +1 because /xrd:XRD/xrd:Link[xrd:Rel="stylesheet"] is pretty spiffy. >> >> On Aug 29, 2009, at 8:24 PM, John Bradley wrote: >> >>> We lose a round robin load balancing that no one ever used. >>> >>> Some things that don't preserve order may break. >>> >>> The addition of dsig requires order to be preserved anyway. >>> >>> I vote for dropping the priority attribute to simplify things. >>> >>> John B. >>> On 29-Aug-09, at 9:15 PM, Gabe Wachob wrote: >>> >>>> Wow. >>>> >>>> This feels like deja vu, only the consensus on this list is 180 >>>> degrees different. >>>> >>>> I'm all for relying on ordering, always have been.
