Re: Last Call: draft-nottingham-http-link-header (Web Linking) to Proposed Standard

The *title parameter already allows for a language to be associated with the title. See RFC2231 and the examples in the link draft.

Cheers,

Sorry, that slipped through the cracks.

No problem!

I didn't want to be a pain, bringing it up so often.

lang doesn't make any sense in this context; in HTML it applies to the
link text, but there is none here.

From the exmaple I gave in one of my previous emails:

Link: <essay.en>; rel="alternate"; hreflang="en"; lang="en"; title="Essay" Link: <essay.fr>; rel="alternate"; hreflang="fr"; lang="fr"; title="Essais" Link: <essay.de>; rel="alternate"; hreflang="de"; lang="de"; title="Aufsatz"

The lang parameter pertains to the content of the link title parameter:

 Essay, Essais, or Aufsatz

Which is directly analogous to the HTML version:

<link rel="alternate" href="essay.en" hreflang="en" lang="en" title="Essay"> <link rel="alternate" href="essay.fr" hreflang="fr" lang="fr" title="Essais"> <link rel="alternate" href="essay.de" hreflang="de" lang="de" title="Aufsatz">

A friend of mine points out that it should be Essai, but oh well.

Thank you for considering my feedback!

Best,
