Yeah, that's where thing get interesting and complicated! Perhaps we need a way to indicate that a style is some revision of another style? With documents and Dublin Core, this is done with versionOf properties. > Who is doing 50 copies of the style? Sorry, I wasn't meaning there actually is 50 copies; just making a conceptual point. > In Mendeley we use the styleId from the repository > (http://www.zotero.org/styles/ ones, would be ore clear to have the > styleIds to http://citationstyles.org/styles/ ?). We only use the > http://csl.mendeley.com/styles when a user edits the style. OK; gotcha.
