Re: All of the WWW Available **Forever**

[Antonio Maio <antoniom@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

This is my first post on here so I hope it works!  I've been following all the emails, and have read several articles and so on about Xanadu and find it really intersting.  I think that I basically understand the concept of Transclusion, but I'm wondering, what would:

transclude:[URL]:[date]:[segment(s)]

actually do???

Thanks for any info you can give,
Ciao,
Antonio Maio

Sounds like this might be a good time to propose a new URL scheme,
something like

transclude:[URL]:[date]:[segment(s)]

which would automatically go to this archive or to Deja News, as
appropriate. I have made the suggestion to the IETF, and will find out how
to start the process, if y'all like.
