My understanding is that this DOI would be used as any other reference, which should be included in the list of references at the end. With a single DOI or one for each version, the version identification (ex. CF-1.7) would go explicitly in the bibliographic references section. In my lab, we

Without wanting to belabor this point, since it's clearly been decided, I'd like to point out that the DOI can in no way replace the description of CF in the Conventions attribute: 'files that follow these conventions indicate this by setting the NUG defined global attribute Conventions to the

Great! We need to put some information together to move this forward: - Are there funding agencies? Which ones? - Who are the creators? [The list of authors in the main document](http://cfconventions.org/cf-conventions/cf-conventions.html#_about_the_authors)? - There are other categories of

Creating a single DOI pointing to https://cfconventions.org would be great, I think, and what was decided at the Reading meeting. We didn't decide to _not_ create further DOIs (e.g. for different conventions versions) simply because we couldn't decide in the limited time how best to proceed.

Sorry for the delay, I'm back. Thanks for the correction @ethanrd. Yes, I also recall an agreement for a single DOI. Although I would recommend using a master DOI with one child DOI for each release, it is possible to use a single DOI for the CF concept. Thus it would not be associated to a

As I recall, the decision at the Reading meeting was to mint a DOI for CF in general rather than for any particular version of any particular document. Is there a way using Zenodo with GitHub to mint a DOI that isn't associated with a particular document/artifact/release? Or, perhaps the

UCSD library could provide that, but they suggested to use Zenodo since it can be integrated with GitHub, which I confirm that is nearly zero maintenance. My contact in the library also mentioned that they trust Zenodo due to the solid institutions that support it. I canto do the repository

I believe that there was an agreement in Reading to create a DOI for the CF convention documentation. Is that correct? If so, shall we discuss the details on how to do it? We have a few options on how to implement it. One of them is using Zenodo as suggested by @rsignell-usgs , which would

Sure, everything digital needs upkeep--that's the blessing and the curse. It's not my area of expertise, so I'm not really qualified to debate this with an informed point of view. therefore when it comes to best practice for long term reference and archival, I'll trust what the experts (i.e.

Assuming someone maintains the mapping between DOI and the intended digital object's current URL. Otherwise, DOIs become stale unique strings the same as URLs do. I said I'd stay out of the persistent identifier flame war, but I failed. Maybe we should use blockchain. > On Jan 19, 2018, at

OK, looks like I'll be the odd one out here. Let me ask a few questions: * What will the DOI(s) be used for that the canonical URLs can not? * What capability do the DOIs have that the canonical URLs do not? * How will you resolve the duality of two canonical references, one being the DOI and the

The DOI itself is permanent, the URL that results from dereferencing the DOI can be changed. The object/concept the DOI identifies should be permanent. What that object/concept actually represents and the possible versioning of that object, I believe, is up to those stewarding that object.

I know that on some DOI services (e.g. [https://zenodo.org/]()) you can have a unique DOI for each release, but also generic DOI that always resolves to the latest version. I don't know if this feature is ubiquitous, though. For instance, [https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.832255]() resolves to

Another option is to have a single DOI and recommend that users include the version number when citing CF. What URL should result when dereferencing a CF DOI? I would think either the main CF web page or the current CF specification document. -- You are receiving this because you commented.
