Title : The 'tdb' and 'duri' URI schemes, based on dated URIs
Author(s) : L. Masinter
Filename : draft-masinter-dated-uri-07.txt
Pages : 16
Date : 2010-10-22
This document defines two URI schemes. The first, 'duri' (standing
for "dated URI"), allows indicating a URI as of a particular date
(and time). This allows explicit reference to the "time of
retrieval", similar to the way in which bibliographic references
containing URIs are used.
The second scheme, 'tdb' ( standing for "Thing Described By"),
provides a way of using a way of minting URIs for anything that can
be described, with the ability to fix the description to a given date
or time. The 'tdb' URI scheme may reduce the need to define define
new URN namespaces merely for the purpose of creating stable
identifiers for concepts or abstractions: it provides a ready means
for identifying "non-information resources" by semantic indirection
-- a way of creating a URI for anything.
Note
This document is not a product of any working group. Many of the
ideas here have been discussed since 2001. This document has been
discussed on the mailing list <uri@w3.org>. Previous versions have
couched 'tdb' and 'tdb' as URN namespaces.
