The problem is that a uri has parts that are not relevant to determining the location of a resource, it would have been nice to have this same facility in namespaces, especially in cases where we want our namespaces to be dereferenceable. Thus an uri http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#related.resources would be considered as the same namespace as http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema But that is another thing that is not getting fixed anytime soon. P.S: Don't you find it ironic that one of the namespaces you spent so much time complaining about has a rddl document at the end of its dereferenceable uri?

  okay I'm gonna stop commenting on this article, there were just a number of points that somewhat rubbed me the wrong way.
