Thanks. At first I was puzzled about this, as it looked like a competitor for purl.org. But I see that OCLC is involved in both, so I guess it is the new face. It doesn't quite look mature enough yet to be considered for our 10s of millions of URIs (I see purl.org has less than 1M), and as I registered rkbexplorer.com specifically to publish this information, I am hopefully in control of making it as persistent as I need, as well as performance. And since we 303, I can move the stores around if I want. On the other hand, if someone is short of a place to put their data, and would be content with xxx.rkbexplorer.com, then feel free to contact me. As you can imagine we would just bring up another triplestore with it in, add it to the list of vhosts, and you get the browsing, 303 etc for free. The URI resolution then follows automatically, as it is a query into the appropriate triplestore, with a caching policy. Certainly I would be very interested to hear from people who had data that might be appropriate for our subject domain (Resilient Computing).
