RE: Problems and Opportunities at purl.org

Can we do this publicly. 
Other implementations are possible (e.g. the CSIRO PIDsvc https://www.seegrid.csiro.au/wiki/Siss/PIDServiceUserGuide), so a neutral format for redirection rules would be good (i.e not just .htaccess or purl format) .

Yeah, let's get this going.

So looking at the purl database schema we don't really need the group and user stuff to start with (although that could be added to the README).

the purls table itself should be sufficient to start. We can find the different "type" values in the purl.org source code I think?
