Data Types Issue 76: II.reference URI not just URL
Introduction
The XML ITS says that, if you want to reference something from the Act.text attribute, the valid address needs to conform to http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt, which are URL and not URIs. Abstract Data Types on the other hand says otherwise (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt), which are URIs.
The use of URIs in places that would have been restricted to URLs has increased and been endorsed by W3C, so the rationale for this restriction in the ITS does not make sense -- I suspect that it is an error, and should have been relaxed to reflect the abstract datatypes anyway Charliemccay 08:24, 5 April 2007 (CDT)
? backward compatible.
