Could you explain this further?

Sure.  Please see:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/persistenturls/jjkbMQLYWYU <https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/persistenturls/jjkbMQLYWYU>


Noted [and see below]

Please note that this deprecation relates solely to the codebase and has no impact on OCLC or OCLC's purl.org <http://purl.org> service. Any decision to migrate or change purl.org <http://purl.org> is purely OCLC's decision.

Thank you, that's an important distinction as many ontologies rely on purl.org


Deprecated by whom?

3 Round Stones (http://3roundstones.com) currently oversees development and maintenance of both purlz.org <http://purlz.org> and the Callimachus Project. 3 Round Stones is moving all new PURL development from purlz.org <http://purlz.org> to the Callimachus Project because we have been the only ones contributing code to purlz.org <http://purlz.org> in some years.


So no new contributions for purlz.org will be accepted?

Barry
