Discussion topics for session

- Goal: links that are both actionable and "persistent" (trustworthy)
- Use cases: (1) permanent record (text), (2) archival linked data
- TAG can't take initiative but can inform and advise
- The issue is trust, not technique.  DOIs are trusted by the affected
    communities.
- How vulnerable are DOIs?
- How vulnerable are W3C URIs?  Thought experiment: Should W3C buy
    some DOIs?
- What sort of miracle might bring about actionable
  trusted-to-be-persistent URIs?  Is this a thought experiment or real prospect?
