right, I should have stated that in the first place.
URIs are not a concern of OpenOBEX. To users on the other hand it is not
viable to present raw structs (i.e. obex_interface_t) least let them
interact with those. So all programs using OpenOBEX (e.g. ObexFTP)
would need to translate these both ways. Output some friendly results
when discovering devices and let the user select from these (input ).
I some cases this can be done transparently (e.g. with dialog options in
guis). In the general case however a collapsed representation in a
single character string is needed.
This is also much more convenient for the language bindings in ObexFTP
(I don't want to expose all the fussy details from FindInterface e.g.).
There are six bindings in need of this already.
To get to the point: this is something I want to do (in ObexFTP). And I
hope to get some comments on a 'best URI scheme'.

Christian
