Topic: Publishing RDF; Competency: Determines whether to use hash (#) or slash (/). This document describes standards for NCBI-minted persistent URIs that identify RDF resources. The goals of this document include: Provide guidance to help projects get started publishing data on the Semantic Web; Provide standards and recommendations for the forms that the published RDF URIs should take; Provide distributed authority and control, that allows for groups/projects to mint their own identifiers, by providing namespaces; Specify a centralized system for handling HTTP requests to RDF URIs, in accordance with current best practices (e.g. HTTP 303 redirects)
