I haven't been following the discussion in VWRAP, and I have no intension of starting a political war about who decides what. The goal of the discussion here is to decide what makes sense in the context of OpenSimulator. Please send a link the VWRAP recommendation, if there is one, and we'll get it into this discussion.

This has been widely discussed on the VWRAP list. Perhaps a reference to
that would be in order.

Yes.
Hence, it's an important design decision.

Question:

Will this provide the groundwork for global content identification/creator attribution?

    I'm about to introduce global identifiers, so that I can make
    friends and IM work on the hypergrid, and would like feedback on the
    best form of these identifiers. Here are some options:

    http://myworld.com:8002/7c4450fc-aeaf-468d-b238-d52955dc868b

    myworld.com:8002/7c4450fc-aeaf-468d-b238-d52955dc868b
    <http://myworld.com:8002/7c4450fc-aeaf-468d-b238-d52955dc868b>

    [email protected]:8002
    <http://[email protected]:8002>

    ...

    In this particular case (for friends and IM) we're dealing with user
    accounts, but the issue is broader than that. Whatever form we
    choose should be applicable to all sorts of resources.

    My preference is to use a URI, according to the spec of URIs
    (http://www.w3.org/Addressing/URL/uri-spec.html). The question is:
    should we add additional specifications on these URIs? Like using
    the path /user/ for user accounts, etc.

    Thoughts?

    Thanks.
