IVOA Identifiers Version 2 Proposed Recommendation: Request for Comments
IVOA Identifiers describes the syntax and semantics of the IVOA's special URIs.
Such URIs are being used in the Registry to identify records, but IVOIDs are
also used to denote datasets of all kinds, reference standards, and more.
Latest version of Identifiers 2 can be found at:
Reference Interoperable Implementations
Doesn't really apply here, as no protocol is defined. However, IVOA identifers
are in daily use in the Registry, and we preserve the Version 1 properties
that make that work.
The special form of Dataset ids has been in use in the GAVO data center
for a while. We will try to have other data centers on board for TCG review.
The special form of standard ids has, essentially, been used for VOSI
URLs and
RegTAP. TAP 1.1 will probably be the first standard to
fully use the patterns proposed here.
