Register FINOS as persistent identifier namespace on the Web #156
Comments
Thanks @noelmcloughlin - @jgavronsky can you chime in here? |
Checking this issue again (sorry for the terrible delay); last week we consolidated our project metadata into https:/finos/finos-landscape/blob/master/landscape.yml It could be interesting to build a fairly simple script that:
This should cover the project URLs; re. data glossaries, I like the idea, but I don't know where it could be applied; maybe FDC3 Standard schemas? We're working now on auto generating them, though I wonder if the FDC3 team would see value in it, cc @robmoffat . Last question is, what do we want to do with these URLs? Where do we want to use them and how? Is it worth changing URLs across the board, or we just keep them there for when it's going to be needed? As @noelmcloughlin stated in the issue description, this makes a lot of sense when dealing with Linked Data, which is what we don't host yet. |
Please consider registering FINOS as a persistent identifier namespace on the Web.
Web applications dealing with Linked Data often need URLs that are very stable. Registering FINOS as a persistent identifier namespace allows member projects to leverage the service. For example, FINOS projects publish their vocabulary at: https://w3id.org /finos/, and potentially in machine readable format in future.
Persistent identifiers namespaces examples:
https://w3id.org/finos => https://www.finos.org
https://w3id.org/finos/legend => https://github.io/finos/legend # vocabulary, machine generated (CI)
https://w3id.org/finos/glossary/XYZ/ => https://github.io/finos/glossary/XYZ # vocabulary, machine generated (CI)
The use cases and business value derives from W3C Semantic web initiatives, making FINOS data more accessible on the Semantic Web. W3ID.org is run by W3C Persistent Identifiers Committee and scales well.
It could be persistent identifier namespace for vocabulary developed by Open RegTech, etc, etc
