On 2002-08-06, Seth Russell uttered to Peter Bruhn Andersen and RDF-interest: >I don't think that creating a URI (any type of uri) is the best >solution. Reason is that different entities who want to describe this >person will tend to create different URI for him or her. Yes, but only where you come from. Over here, just about everybody who needs to uniquely identify a person will actually use the PIN. Government agencies, banks, credit card companies, universities, everybody. Given that those sorts of instances aren't exactly what one might call trivial in the e-world, I think a URI type to facilitate PIN use can actually make a difference in how well RDF is perceived around these parts. -- Sampo Syreeni, aka decoy - mailto:decoy@iki.fi, tel:+358-50-5756111 student/math+cs/helsinki university, http://www.iki.fi/~decoy/front openpgp: 050985C2/025E D175 ABE5 027C 9494 EEB0 E090 8BA9 0509 85C2
