"duri" and "tdb" URN namespaces based on dated URIs

  • This document defines two namespaces of URNs, based on using a
    timestamp with an (encoded) URI. The results are namespaces in which names
    are readily assigned, offer the persistence of reference that is
    required by URNs, but do not require a stable authority to assign
    the name. The first namespace ("duri") is used to refer to
    URI-identified resources as they appeared at a particular time. The
    second namespace ("tdb") is useful as a way of creating URNs that
    refer to physical objects or even abstractions that are not
    themselves networked resources.



    The definition of these namespaces may reduce the need to define new
    URN namespaces merely for the purpose of creating stable
    identifiers.

  • This Finding addresses the question of how ancillary information (schemas,
    stylesheets, documentation, etc.) can be associated with a namespace.
