PaceCanonicalIds


Abstract

Require atom:id values to be canonical URIs, based primarily on the rules defined in [WWW]rfc 2396bis

Status

Open

Rationale

Existing software libraries vary in what normalization rules they respect when doing URI comparisons. In order to ensure predictable comparisions, canonicalization is required.

Proposal

In format draft -01, section 5.5 "atom:id" Element, replace the last paragraph with the following text.

Examples

Impacts

Few existing ids would be affected, but some feed producing software may need to be modified to insert canonicalization logic.
