Good point for discussion. At the f2f we agreed that "the ID for test samples in the database would be the URI of the XML metadata file to avoid any breakage through constructed IDs (and eventual mistakes that could lead to overwriting existing data)" [1]. In other words, we would use neither of the above but the full URI. However, this turned out to be very cumbersome to read and display, so that I reverted to a numerical ID which would be generated by the database anyway. The full URI will however remain to be the reference as it is, by definition, unique. The naming convention would also remain functional for the directory structure in the CVS.
