Does anyone know the process for registering a sub-scheme for info: uris?
I'd like to have one for SuDoc classification numbers, info:sudoc/.
I'm not sure if I can register that on my own, without working with the
US Government Printing Office, who actually maintains sudocs. But if I
have to
Thanks Ray.
Oh boy, I don't know enough about SuDoc to describe the syntax rules
fully. I can spend some more time with the SuDoc documentation (written
for a pre-computer era) and try to figure it out, or do the best I can.
I mean, the info registration can clearly point to the existing
Hello
Good Afternoon!!
The eXtensible Catalog (XC) OAI Toolkit repository is now available to
the public for download at http://code.google.com/p/xcoaitoolkit. This
project page, hosted by Google Code, is home to all the up-to-date
information about the OAI Toolkit, it's downloads,
Pointing to the documentation and saying one of these isn't going to work,
I'm afraid. Most important is to make sure that the syntax is consistent
with URI syntax. Where the syntax of the identifier you're representing is
potentially at odds with URI syntax, you might have to make

Yeah, I thought of the URI encoding issue, that's easy enough to deal
with, makes sense.
I have no idea how to tell if SuDocs are case sensitive or not. But they
ARE all assigned by the GPO, and look-up-able in the GPO catalog. Yeah,
they have to be URL encoded, certainly, but can't we just
I am looking for the easiest possible way to get a legal URI
representing a sudoc.
My understanding, after looking at this stuff previously, is that info:
is a LOT lower barrier than urn:, and that's part of it's purpose.
Before Ed or someone else mentions http, to me, using http: URIs would
True, good point. I am looking for something a _bit_ more shareable
between other software and institutions than tag. info: still seems a
nice compromise to me.

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.

Another good idea, true. There are indeed lots of ways to do this.
But wait, you
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the point of all this to be able to put
the URI in an OpenURL? And info was invented (in part) to avoid putting
http URIs in OpenURLs (because they are complicated enough already, why
clutter them further). So I don't see that pursuing an http solution to

I've got nothing against putting http uris in OpenURLs myself. I don't
understand the objection to that, really.

I definitely see your point.
But I can't count on my _organization_ to maintain any of this stuff _at
all_ after I leave. My organization is not in that business.
