Perhaps the problem is that there is too little incentive in spending one owns resources, or giving finance to relations (sameAs or other). So this does not happen. Would the world look less grim if we had such incentives? But I guess that is a chicken and egg problem... I disagree about the dois a bit: they make it real easy to find the behind-the-paywall article, but of course they make it real hard to find an open access version of the same article in a institutional or subject repository. I am not too charmed by this anyways, but the doi is a brilliant invention by commercial publishers to make it even less likely to work. Otherwise I love dois, of course... ---- Gregor
