identifier-syntax
description
Identifiers in the eu-repo namespace are used to identify 
information assets used in the European Research Libraries. 
The syntax is of the form:
  info:eu-repo/_type_/_identifier_

whereby:
* _type_ gives an indication of the nature and purpose of 
the identifier.
Current values for _type_ include: 'semantics' and 'dai'.  The meaning 
is explained in the Namespace Information section.
* _identifier_ is a unique string assigned to the 
information asset.
* _identifier_ can be replaced by _subType_/_identifier_

Examples:
* info:eu-repo/semantics/descriptiveMetadata
* info:eu-repo/semantics/objectFile
* info:eu-repo/semantics/humanStartPage
* info:eu-repo/dai/nl/12345
* info:eu-repo/semantics/researchProposal
