Relative URI resolution in OPC

[MURATA Makoto]

Alex,

Thank you for reminding us of this issue.

This appears to be similar to the EPUB  and
ODF case, which provides a different base
URI for relative references occurring in
META-INF.  We might want to borrow some
text from ODF 1.2 or EPUB 3.0.

Regards,
Makoto

> The problem is that the exemption about base URIs for resolution that applies to relationship parts (they resolve with a base URI of their parent folder) is only mentioned once in the Standard, while other mentions of URI resolution do not mention this exemption. Thus depending on which bit of the text one is reading, the mechanism for resolving such URIs differs.
