Xiaoshu,
With GRDDL, on the other hand, you
just publish two document, one HTML on "http://hcls.org/superblast";
and
another XSLT on an arbitrary URI. It offers a clean solution to
remedy URI's
split personality without asking too much from the author (well,
xslt isn't
that simple though:-)).
Ahh, I see where you're going. That makes a lot of sense. You could
conceive of the end result as a stripped-down version of a semantic
web service; not extensible, but easy to implement.
I hadn't really thought before about the dual personality of a URI.
It's important, just like you say, especially as we try start to
treat URI's as resources and make them stand for persistent real-
world objects. It'll be important to get the same URI to talk back
appropriately to any interlocutor, regardless if it's a person, a
machine, a group of people, a mixed machine-person entity, etc.
