I should have taken the time to fully read the whole thread and other related emails before commenting, there seems to be general agreement to settle on something more descriptive anyway. I’m cool with majority view.

I’m supportive of this too and I like “eco” more than any of the other proposed abbreviations. However, as John suggests, that might already be taken. If eco is not available, perhaps using “inventory” in full would be more intuitive and explicit.

Great suggestion! I agree and am very supportive of the change in namespace removing Humboldt.

 Is a combination of your suggestions too much? ecoInv maybe?

I really like your idea. Solves all kinds of issues. I'll be surprised if "eco:" isn't already in common use, but if it isn't, we should jump on it.

Hi all,

 

This is a follow-up to the brief discussion at the end of our meeting today. I had an idea in the shower (where I frequently have creative thoughts – must be something about being more relaxed) about what to use as a short abbreviation for Humboldt extension IRIs. As an official name for Humboldt, we call it the “Humboldt Extension for Ecological Inventories” or something like that. That already has the benefit of telling people what it’s about. Then for the abbreviation we either use “eco” or “inv” as the abbreviation instead of “humboldt” or “hmbldt”. That would make the IRIs either

http://rs.tdwg.org/eco/term/foo

or

http://rs.tdwg.org/inv/term/foo

 

which would be abbreviated as “eco:foo” or “inv:foo” respectively, following the established patterns we already are using in TDWG.

 

This would have the added benefit of not confusing anybody if we suddenly discover that Humboldt was an evil space alien or something and decide we don’t want to name the extension after him anymore. Yes, I know that sounds weird, but Audubon Core is rebranding as Audiovisual Core and fortunately we can still use “ac:” without confusing anybody. This solution would also dodge that potential future problem.

 

I haven’t checked to see if “eco” or “inv” are already being used by any well-known vocabularies, but I’ll do that if this idea gets any traction.

 

Thoughts?
