    Subject: Re: Treatment of trailing slash after directory name

I believe that Dan Connolly was talking about my impressions, not
yours. Under the WWW worldview, you'd neither know nor care that "c"
is a directory; if you want to indicate a logical directory you put in
the trailing slash. Under the `pure IETF URI' worldview, you don't
even know that there's a "c" there.
