RE: AMS - IETF Press Release

2008-02-12 09:35:11

Speaking of the IETF eating its own dogfood, is there 
a reason why people write things like this?

http://www.businesswire.com/portal/site/google/index.jsp? 
ndmViewId=news_view&newsId=20080212005014&newsLang=en

Or use services like this?

http://tinyurl.com/37qjnd

Rather than following the advice of Appendix C in RFC 3986 which
recommends putting angle brackets around URLs like so?

<http://www.businesswire.com/portal/site/google/index.jsp?ndmViewId=news
_view&newsId=20080212005014&newsLang=en>

I generally type <> left-arrow and then paste the URL between them.
In some environments it even works for non-standard URLs like
<\\SomeServer\Some Folder Name\Engineering\Joe Bloe\Important
Spreadsheet.xls>
or
<file:Q:\Engineering\Joe Bloe\Important Spreadsheet.xls>
