Follow-up on widgets scheme discussion with TAG members [Was: Re: [Widgets] URI Scheme revisited.... again]

2008-10-29 Thread Arthur Barstow

Hi Mark, Please see [1] for TAG discussion about WebApps proposal of widget URI scheme. From what I got from the discussion, the TAG seems to agree that we likely do need our own URI scheme. We just need to flesh out our technical argument a little more. We are also going to try to coordinate

Hi, It seems to me that Requirement 6 should be split into two requirements: A. A conforming specification MUST specify or recommend an addressing scheme to address the individual resources within the widget resource at runtime. B. A conforming specification MUST specify or recommend an

Marcos - IIRC, there was little or no support for a widget URI scheme in the discussion on www-tag. Why are you continuing to move ahead with it? Note that you'll still have to get this past IANA who maintains the registry. IANA uses a process specified in RFC 4395 which says; The use and

2008-10-07 Thread Marcos Caceres
Hi All, I think, for V1, that we should drop the authority part of the widget URI scheme and leave it as an implementation detail (but add a note saying that we might add a scheme in V2). I propose this because we don't currently have an API or security/interaction model for cross-widget
