     1.4 +This module implements the URI class.
     1.5 +Objects of this class represent "Uniform Resource Identifier references" as
     1.6 +specified in RFC 2396 (and updated by RFC 2732).
     1.7 +
     1.8 +A Uniform Resource Identifier is a compact string of characters that
     1.9 +identifies an abstract or physical resource.
    1.10 +A Uniform Resource Identifier can be further classified as either a
    1.11 +Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or a Uniform Resource Name (URN).
    1.12 +The distinction between URL and URN does not matter to the URI class interface.
    1.13 +A "URI-reference" is a URI that may have additional information attached in
    1.14 +the form of a fragment identifier.
    1.15 +
    1.16 +An absolute URI reference consists of three parts: a scheme, a scheme-specific
    1.17 +part and a fragment identifier.
    1.18 +A subset of URI references share a common syntax for hierarchical namespaces.
    1.19 +For these, the scheme-specific part is further broken down into authority,
    1.20 +path and query components.
    1.21 +These URIs can also take the form of relative URI references, where the scheme
    1.22 +(and usually also the authority) component is missing, but implied by the
    1.23 +context of the URI reference.
