A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : URL Problem Statement and Directions Authors : Sam Ruby Larry Masinter Filename : draft-ruby-url-problem-01.txt Pages : 12 Date : 2015-01-11 Abstract: This document lays out the problem space of possibly conflicting standards between multiple organizations for URLs and things like them, and proposes some actions to resolve the conflicts. From a user or developer point of view, it makes no sense for there to be a proliferation of definitions of URL nor for there to be a proliferation of incompatible implementations. This shouldn't be a competitive feature. Therefore there is a need for the organizations involved to update and reconcile the various Internet Drafts, Recommendations, and Standards in this area.
