Re: Recommendations: URIs

I'm not sure who said what anymore ;-)

Let me try to give a very simple summary (for my own understanding). And 
I'm simplifying enormously!

- Libraries should assign URIs to their own things (these URIs identify 
"instance data", in any case books; but also authors and subjects)
- These things can be described elsewhere (with global URI) or locally 
(with local URI)
- Libraries should assign URIs for relations between their things (these 
URIs identify "ontology" or "vocabulary" data: thing 'book' relation 
'written by' thing 'person')
- These relations should be described elsewhere, as part of an ontology 
or vocabulary

That's it, isn't it?
