Comment 1 for bug 671924

If I may vote, I'd vote to not use trailing slashes. IMHO a trailing slash looks strange, because if the URI as an identifier of a Work or Edition is the same as the URI for the HTML representation of its description, how can one assert things about either things?
How about: URI of a Work, Edition or Author has no trailing slash, URIs of their (default) HTML descriptions do have a trailing slash and descriptions in other formats have a file type extension at the end like they do now (.rdf, .json)?
