That is a good catch. That was a remainder from the first version where <br>
I didn't realise the broadness of the PIDs. Also because the concrete <br>
application I had to want to request this was because my data has EPIC <br>
PIDs, which obviously are not DOIs. I think my realisation of the broad <br>
application of PIDs was not even complete, but this seems to me more <br>
like an argument to not only have one specific implementation of PIDs in <br>
the UCDs, and not at least a general one.<br>
<br>
So I thank you for pointing that out, ask the working group to ignore <br>
that sentence, and apologise for the confusion I caused :).<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
