After speaking with Robert Jordens and several of my colleagues about it, I feel more comfortable encouraging the behavior that is referenced in RFC 2396, Appendix E. The suggestion is the enclosure of URIs---URLs included, of course---in the "angle brackets" < and >. The Unicode Consortium, or perhaps more specifically, The Unicode Standard, refers to these glyphs as LESS-THAN SIGN (U+003C) and GREATER-THAN SIGN (U+003E), respectively. This is a practice that makes good sense to me, but I am curious as to whether anyone else has any views on making this the suggested Debian method for referring to URIs.
