identifier 2.0 about mdjson-schemas HOT 3 CLOSED

We need type. It was being used to specifically identify, well, the type. I believe we're also using it to id ISBN and ISSN in -2, since those are actual elements. Beyond that, we need it to id DOI's and such. It should probably be backed by a codelist of suggested types.

I was thinking type would fit in namespace, I think they are the same thing. Namespace is a simple character string, not a URI, which would be placed within authority. Perhaps calling it codeSpace as it is in ISO would help. But there were objections to using that name when designing mdJson 1.0.

OK, I stand corrected. We'll need to make sure that we indicate that the "official" namespace should be used when one exists, like:

• urn:ISBN
• urn:ISSN
• info:doi/
• info:ark/
