No, I don't think it's sensible. I personally prefer DOI's, because of
copyright issues. But nowhere does he claim that his is an EFFICIENT
mechanism, nor does he purport it to be the BEST mechanism or that it
should replace more advanced mechanisms such as DOI's or DNS redirects.
Not to mention that his scheme does not even work if the owner does not
have access to the old server.
He simply gives a $%&8#@ theoretical analogy. And as far as the analogy
goes, he is correct. IN PRINCIPLE. Links to redirects correspond to Mac
handles and links to webpages correspond to Mac pointers. That's all.
The applicability of his scheme is another issue altogether and I agree
with the rest of the posters that it is far from viable.
If you see anyplace where he suggests that we all should use the
redirect scheme instead of other schemes, I'll gladly stand corrected.
I simply didn't see what all this had to do with your insult.
