Re: [arch-d] BCP 190, draft-nottingham-for-the-users, and a generalization

[Guntur Wiseno Putra <[e-mail]>]

Dear architecture-discuss,

Forgive me for typing errors in previous message...

An alternative link to the posting on Marcos Novak's "Liquid Architecture
in Cyberspace" at public@[e-mail] I mentioned earlier
is

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-informationarchitecture/
2019May/0000.html

(which was "403 Forbidden: Request forbidden by administrative rules" the
last time I checked up minutes ago)

Or, if going directly toward the text:

https://www.evl.uic.edu/datsoupi/coding/readings/1991_Novak_Liquid.pdf

Thank to Martin Dodge for suggesting Marcos Novak's architecture in
www.cybergeography.org bringing me to Daria Tsoupukiva's lecture providing
the reading...



Regard,
Guntur Wiseno Putra
