ISSUE-43: Re-using public entity identifiers

uri-reuse

Re-using public entity identifiers

State:

CLOSED

Product:

R2RML

Raised by:

Richard Cyganiak

Opened on:

2011-05-24

Description:

As per our charter: “The mapping language MUST allow for a mechanism to create identifiers for database entities. The generation of identifiers should be designed to support the implementation of the linked data principles. Where possible, the language will encourage the reuse of public identifiers for long-lived entities such as persons, corporations and geo-locations.”

The question here is how to enable and encourage the re-use of public identifiers for entities such as people, corporations and places.
