Actually the uri egg doesn't "use" the url egg but provides
conversion routines. I guess the uri egg could be called a "superset"
but in my opinion it is misnamed. URI is an abstraction, a category
of specific resource naming systems. I think the uri egg is a
different url egg. (I would like to take what is desired in both,
combine, & have only one egg - url.)
I wanted to implement the abstraction, w/ pluggable parsers &
handlers, but never had the time.
The reason for porting the SLIB module was the url egg didn't handle
"file:/" urls correctly & I wanted such things for the logging egg.
