fedora Namespace of Fedora Digital Objects and Disseminations 2004-06-02 DuraSpace P.O. Box 7144, Ithaca, NY 14851-7144 http://duraspace.org/ Chris Wilper cwilper@duraspace.org 1-607-254-8623 To identify a digital object: Syntax: "info:fedora/" object-pid Where: "object-pid" is the Fedora PID of the object Examples: info:fedora/example:1 info:fedora/example:9876 To identify a dissemination: Syntax: "info:fedora/" object-pid "/" dissem-name Where: "object-pid" is the Fedora PID of the object (or "*" when the URI indicates a dissemination without regard to a particular object). "dissem-name" is either a datastream ID or behavior definition object PID, followed by "/", followed by a method name. Examples: info:fedora/example:3/DS1 info:fedora/example:3/example:1/index info:fedora/*/DS1 info:fedora/*/example:1/index Note that datastream ids and method names may consist of XML NCName characters. NCName characters that are not safe to directly encode in an "info" uri and must be escaped using one to four escaped UTF-8 octets per character, each of the form "%" HEXDIG HEXDIG. - Make all characters up to and including the PID lowercase. - Un-escape any URI-escaped characters that do not need escaping according the definition of the "info" scheme. - Make all remaining escaped octets use UPPERCASE (%ff becomes %FF) http://fedora-commons.org/definitions/identifiers/
