RFC 1862 (rfc1862) - Report of the IAB Workshop on Internet Information In (7130 words) |
 | Summary Although there were some disagreements between the groups on specific functionalities for architectural components, there was broad agreement on the general shape of an information architecture and on general principles for constructing the architecture. |
| The discussions of the architecture generalized a number of concepts that are currently used in deployed systems such as the World Wide Web, but the main thrust was to define general architectural components rather than focus on current technologies. |
| Economics can dictate some points of architecture: one can see economically why a publisher might bear the burden of the costs of publishing, or a consumer might bear the burden of costs associated with consumption, but not how some free-floating third party would necessarily bear the costs of providing services (such as third-party translators). |
