Hi All

We are evaluating CKAN for possible open data deployment.
See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/OpenData

​When checking the features, I see that unique identification of data sets
via some external service is missing.
Am I correct?

I found the following TRAC tickets referring to DOI's and Handle's
respectively.
http://trac.ckan.org/ticket/1145
http://trac.ckan.org/ticket/1429​

How can researcher cite a data set hosted on a CKAN system, on the internet.
What method does CKAN use?

Regards
