Link out definitions and requirements

• Do we want different types of link schemes?: vanilla link, authority link, annotation link?

  • Probably yes. Links that link to structured data (records), to schema, to unstructured text.

• Do we need to say something about structure of information on the other end of the link?

  • No.

• What restrictions are there on what can be at the other end of the link?

• Do we need bi-directional links – links from agent record to resource record?

• If we sent you a query, could you give us back data in this format so we could understand it? « This » format being some schema we define.

• <creator>

  • <name>
  • <scheme>
  • <link>
  • <linkType>

• </creator>

• General need for elements across DC that have data value, link value, link type. Don’t worry about what is at other end of link, could be anything. Possibly link type will tell you.

• DING!
