<div dir="ltr"><br clear="all"><div><div>Folks,</div><div><br></div><div>I am not thiking about how examples (A.3) of resolution</div><div>of relative references in Annex A should be improved.</div><div><br></div><div>A.3 has caused a lot of confusions, since it does not distinguish two</div>
<div>cases: relatvies references beginning with "/" and those not beginning</div><div>with it. The right approach is to clearly use resolution of relative</div><div>references as specified in RFC 3986 and demonstrate examples. In</div>
<div>particular, we should show what the remove_dot_segments and merge</div><div>procedures in RFC 3986 do as part of this resolution.</div><div><br></div><div>A related problem is the absense of base URIs in A.3. Obviously,</div>
<div>base URIs play key reoles in the resolution of relative </div><div>references. Why are they not mentioned? As a result, all examples </div><div>in A.3 appear to begin with "/". There are no examplses that </div>
<div>do not begin with "/".</div><div><br></div><div>I am trying to reogranize examples thoroughly now. I will </div><div>report back in a few days.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div></div>Makoto
