Permanent Identifier Community Group

FYI: a new CG has launched:

The Permanent Identifier Community Group is responsible for shepherding the
community-run https://w3id.org/ website and services associated with the
website. The goal of w3id.org is to provide a permanent URL re-direction
service for Web applications. These types of URLs are important for Linked
Data applications, Vocabulary development, and other sorts of applications
that need to utilize long-lived identifiers on the Web.

At the core of the community is a loose association of organizations
including Digital Bazaar, 3 Round Stones, OpenLink Software, Applied
Testing and Technology, and W3C, that have an agreement in place taking
responsibility for co-manage the website and services. The agreement is
setup such that various organizations can fail, lose interest, or be
unavailable for long periods of time without impacting the overall
operation and maintenance of the website.
