Just thought it might be worth noting that: |
| 5 |
1. The document is not endorsed by w3c (as might be implied by the URI) |
| 6 |
2. It was submitted by Marimba Incorporated and Microsoft Corporation. |
| 7 |
3. No doubt as result of item #2, the "OS value" for Linux is "Lunix" in the |
| 8 |
document. |
| 9 |
4. This format uses the term "OS" to refer to the kernel only. There are not |
| 10 |
even provisions for different actual operating systems (eg Gentoo, RedHat, |
| 11 |
Windows 98, Windows XP, Mac OS X, etc). |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Perhaps something based on this might be considered, but I don't think it |
| 14 |
would be a good idea to use the exact format described when taking these |
| 15 |
issues into consideration. |
