I might missed a bit of background, but I am not sure where the "short statement" is going to be put? For example, a resource with a uri of xURI. How the short statement is fetched? By derefencing xURI or ...? If it is by dereferencing the xURI, then I have a few questions: 1. MIME type will be known when the resource is dereferenced, why is it need to be pre-known? 2. Does a URI has version? Or it is resource that has version? I am not sure what does "Identify versions of URIs" mean? 4. seems to be contradicted to what the TAG's finding[1]. Is there any compelling reasons to use LSID over httpURI? [1]. http://www.w3.org/2001/tag/doc/URNsAndRegistries-50.xml Cheers, Xiaoshu
