Re: URL guarantees that the ftp protocol handler is present, worth re-considering this?

I think it's worth pointing out that in practice URL is not used just to open a connection. It's also used as a strong type to pass URL text around (poor choice of class, but there it is). For instance, it's used in deployment to pass to the browser. With the URL design, you need a handler for the protocol in order to construct it. So no passing a javascript: URL to showDocument (unless a third-party has registered a handler, or a handler is specified in the constructor within a privileged context). Tom

Yes, that's right, there is still a lot of code that uses URL instead of URI. In any case, the proposal here is just to change the specification to remove "ftp" from the list of protocol handlers that are required to be present. The ftp protocol handler will of course still be there so existing code will still work. -Alan
