<font size=3>Thanks, Drummond. <br><br>
Just so everyone is on the same page, for each of the two URLs
below:<br>
is it equivalent to some i-name?<br>
if so, which i-name?<br><br>
</font><a href="http://xri.ru/=joaquin" eudora="autourl">
<font face="Times New Roman, Times" size=3>http://xri.ru/=joaquin<br>
</a> <br>
<a href="http://xri.joaquin.net/=joaquin" eudora="autourl">
http://xri.joaquin.net/=joaquin</a> <br><br>
</font>(Let's first assume that each identifies a HXRI proxy resolution
service. Then, if relevant, the case when they don't.)<br><br>

was getting very late last night, so I didn’t put in the full rule, which
appears on the XRI TC wiki page on XRI Syntax 2.1, specifically:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xri/XriCd02/Xri2dot1Formats#head-53d6e9e25a1fc09b79a3e624f2618f7c5d54ba69">

<br>
<br>
The rule says:<br>
<br>
</font><font size=3><br>
</font><font face="Times New Roman, Times" size=3>A HXRI proxy resolution
service is identified by an HTTP(S) URI in which: <br>
1.</font><font face="Times New Roman, Times" size=1>
</font><font size=3>The least significant
domain name begins with "xri." AND <br>
</font><font face="Times New Roman, Times" size=3>2.</font>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times" size=1>
</font><font size=3>The first character of the path is a GCS character
(!, =, @, +, $), i.e., the starting character of a canonical XRI.
<br><br>
</font><font face="Times New Roman, Times" size=3>These two rules
together should produce an diminimus number of false positives. <br>

Drummond, this smells strange to me. But the only questions I can
formulate are:<br><br>
-- How did you get from
'<a href="http://xri.net/'%A0" eudora="autourl">http://xri.net/' </a> to
'<a href="http://xri/" eudora="autourl">http://xri</a>*' ?<br>
-- What kind of funny-business might happen with
'<a href="http://xri.ru/" eudora="autourl">http://xri.ru</a>' ' or '
<a href="http://xri.joaquin.net/" eudora="autourl">
http://xri.joaquin.net</a>'?<br><br>
Cordially, Joaquin<br><br>
Well, maybe this one, too:<br><br>
-- Since I can run my own XRI root and resolver, ... what?
