Discussion om concept UCD: meta.ref.pid

[Yan Grange]

Hi Semantics people,

What do you think of the following concept for a UCD? Looking forward to 
your feedback!

Vocabulary:

Author: grange at astron.nl

New Term: meta.ref.pid
Action: Addition
Label: Persistent Identifier

Description: Persistent Identifier (dereferenceable)

Rationale: The current UCD list does contain a way to refer to 
persistent identifiers of type DOI (meta.ref.doi). However other 
persistent identifiers (e.g. EPIC PIDs, ORCIDs, etc) are not covered by 
this. Since all PIDs can in principle be resolved by all resolvers, no 
functional difference should exist between them and therefore I propose 
to inculde a general pid term in stead of having one entry per PID type. 
For backwards compatibility I propose not to change anything to 
meta.ref.doi and keep it in place.

Cheers,

Yan Grange
