No success on that sadly.) FTR, I do not consider the WHATWG spec to be anything other than one person's semi-formed opinions about how HTML5 browsers ought to process URL references within the browser environment and populate the "url" DOM object. They just use misleading terms for doing so. While the five active browser development groups might be willing to adhere to it, eventually, the spec disregards all other components of the Web and the implementation realities of anything not a browser. That is not a recipe for IETF-style interoperability. It has no relevance for HTTP server developers (aside from routing bug reports). One nice thing, though, is that if browsers do eventually implement the parsing of Unicode-based references with greater consistency, we can finally write more than just an appendix on how to parse all references regardless of protocol or media type. Such a document (developed within the IETF) could be used to update RFC3986. ....Roy
