Chris, Conal,

Thank you for the info! We're in the planning stages right now, and are considering implementing ARK. Your info and insight was very helpful.

cheers!

I hope I understand your requirement OK - it seems to me a good option
is to supplement the Fedora-generated PID with an ARK (rather than to
see it as a replacement). You can store the ARK in one or more of the
object's datastreams, e.g. as the value of the<dc:identifier>  element
in the DC datastream:

<dc:identifier>ark:/123456/123456</dc:identifier>

Then you can search your repository with the query
"identifier~ark:/123456/123456" to resolve the ARK.

To ensure that your objects are assigned ARK identifiers, you can listen
to the Fedora repository using JMS, and in response to the creation of a
record your listener can mint an identifier and assign it to the new object.

I am doing something similar which is integrating an external handle server.

Hey folks,

This is a *really* old thread. But, I wanted to see if there was any updated 
discussion or understanding on if or how to incorporate ARK within Fedora.

thanks!
