Subject: Re: URL class; is this worth submitting to RAA?


Why not join it with another class that is already present in the RAA?
Are there any conflicts?  Here are some candidates:
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/list.rhtml?name=urb
http://raa.ruby-lang.org/list.rhtml?name=ruby-urn

And the internal class in net/http
