RFC 4156, "The wais URI Scheme", August 2005

Source of RFC: IETF - NON WORKING GROUP
Area Assignment: app

Errata ID: 177

Status: Held for Document Update
Type: Editorial
Publication Format(s) : TEXT

Reported By: Alfred Hoenes

Report Text:

Section 2 should be consistent with the systematic use of the term "URI instead of "URL"

Rationale:
RFC 3986 (== STD 66), in section 1.1.3., at the bottom of page 7,
specifies:

       ...  Future specifications and related documentation should
   use the general term "URI" rather than the more restrictive terms
   "URL" and "URN" [RFC3305].

Admittedly, RFC1630 and RFC 1738 used the term "URL" -- but that
was long before RFC 3986!
