Re: [dxwg] Dereferenceable identifiers [RDID]

>in the Representing HTTP dereferenceable secondary identifier section, there seems to be an assumption that the ^^xsd:anyURI type implies that the literal is an HTTP URI, but the data type allows any valid RFC-3986 URI (e.g. urn:), and these might not be dereferenceable.

I see your point @smrgeoinfo,  the title is slightly misleading. 
I suspect that the only way to know if a URI is HTTP dereferenceable is to try to resolve it as It can be broken. 

 As far as I can understand, indicating an urn is useful as well.  Independently from their dereferenceability,  secondary IDs are indicated to say that others might refer to the same dataset with different IDs, they are useful to manage/ group duplicates.  So I have made the distinction between dereferenceable and non-deferenceable URIs less sharp.
