Re: [CODE4LIB] registering info: uris?

Aha, cool!  Yeah, I could use tag for this, but it wouldn't seem 
appropriate for something I want to encourage others to use compatibly 
as well, info seems better.

Also, the date aspect of a tag-uri seems to make it hard to use to mint
an identifier that will always represent the same SuDoc, regardless of
when it was minted.
    

No the date part is a versioning scheme, not the date you created the
tag URI.  It's used, for example, where I created a specific tag
scheme one day and then decided to create another tag scheme some
other day:

tag:example.org,1999:date/yy-mm-dd

where yy-mm-dd is the year, month and day values.  Then I realize that
it's Y2K so I create a new tag scheme:

tag:example.org,2000:date/yyyy-mm-dd
