Hi David,
Yes, one could use URL shorteners and that's probably the only sane way
to go but it's still not ideal because:
1. Both Bitly and Tinyurl come with no guarantee of service (and a
lot of tracking) - Google's goo.gl is all wrapped up with their services
too - not the kind of thing

I am a researcher working on some Demographic Social Simulation Models. In the
simple models, I distinguish people classed male at birth and people classed
female at birth and gender ambiguity, reassignment (sex change) and gender

The ideal thing would be if ISO, Eurostat produced concise resolvable URIs of
course. But while we wait for them to do that, why doesn't W3C mint and support
URIs for the most commonly used code lists, that resolve to relevant
documentation and/or links to the definitive documents from ISO etc.
Okay, then maybe a PURL would help? purl.org now supports partial
redirects:
http://purl.org/docs/faq.html#toc1.9
That may not quite work with your ISO URIs though.
Personally, I don't think you should worry too much about a machine
expecting to be able to dereference the datatype URI to get
There are just some things outside of the Web's bailiwick, and the properties
of people in that class. The problem is that you are never sure if you are
naming the property on rudely calling the property holder names. ISO declines
to play, the LOC declines differently
Gannon raises a valid point, BUT it is important to remember that ISO
is a *publisher* and DOI is fundamentally a publishing industry thing.
So while they might not be inclined to support Cool URIs for their own
sake, they might be DOI adopters for the sake of The Bottom Line...

So David's solution (using PURLs) provides a bit of transparency and
manageablity, but it has the disadvantage of having no official
status.
Maybe (probably) I'm missing something here?

As Bill suggests: If you use a URI from an authoritative source that
serves the terms, you don't have to wait for ISO to start doing it
themselves. This has been done to some extent in several efforts in
the bio area, in chronological order:

A framework of federated PURLs was
If it helps, gender would be a subclass of http://purl.org/pii/terms/marks If
you show me where to point, I'll create the PURL's. It may take me an hour to
remember my passwords :o)

Again, thanks everyone for the quick and useful responses.
@Gannon, @Andy - you are right that the issue of sex/gender is far from
straightforward (they're not even the same thing I've learned!) However,
I need to offer 'something' even if it's not ideal and then work on the
longer term.
Not so fast, young man ...
The general point is indeed a minefield. see also:
