ACTION-137 on URI/IRI/URL

Updated in tracker, but thought I would send in email:

2009-09-24 13:25:32: I did create another draft which I posted
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2009Sep/0854.html

However, this didn't address all HTML WG comments as promised, although I'd made some good progress. The main "issue" (which led to splitting this out in the first place) is to come up with a way of resolving conflicts between IETF and W3C specs and what browsers actually do (see section 12 of above document.)

Subsequently (and after some discussions with Maciej and Hixie on IRC chat and discussions at TAG meeting now ongoing), I expect to be able to produce another document in the next few days. (Updating due date to 9/28).

In the meanwhile, I'm trying to schedule IETF work to get IETF approval of this approach to URI/IRI/etc. An IETF working group may be necessary to get other IETF working groups (IDNA, HTTP, mailto URI) to pay attention. [Larry Masinter]
