[Open-Legislation] European Legislation Identifier (ELI)

Mon Sep 24 17:31:41 UTC 2012

Hi,

don't you think shouldn't be considered some form of compatibility with or
canonical transformation for the urn:lex scheme already used in some
European countries (e.g. Italy)?

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lex_(URN)

BTW, this URN scheme has also been, for some time, used officially for
identifying Brazilian legislation.

Best regards,
Augusto Herrmann
