Xiaoshu, The idea behind the short URI statements is to get some input as to what people's thoughts are regarding URIs. The short statements are therefore just a tool for helping us to generate a document. They will not form part of a URI. The short statements are being collecting on the BioRDF wiki: http://esw.w3.org/topic/HCLSIG_BioRDF_Subgroup/Tasks/URI_Best_Practices/URI_Statements Kind regards, Susie Xiaoshu Wang wrote: > --Susie, > > >> John Barkley has proposed the following examples of short statement: >> 1.
