Re: Are cool URIs for life?

Stephane,

I did not advocate anything else.
My point is that naming data points and providing an addressable linked
data handle is usually not distinguished.
I argued that in some more critical use cases (e.g. regulated industries)
it is worth while to separate this clearly.

Regards, Marcel
