At arks.org/resources updated current spec link (v.18) from an external link to a PDF hosted onsite; updated current spec to landing page for IETF specs (easier to keep updated)

Final discussion of WG homepage review

  • KH: counting ARKs via API vs survey (pros/cons)


IETF standardization update

  • ARK as URN namespace (in addition to other IETF); might be easy
  • ARK as API rather than as identifier?
  • ARK as centralized silo rather than as distributed (see GJ's April 10 email about n2t)
  • Current ARK draft expires April 20


ARK transition

  • blog post https://arks.org/blog/upcoming-changes-to-the-ark-specification/
  • Changes (complete?):
    • NAAN should be preceded by "ark:", as in ark:12345/x7th8, but the the V.I format should also be accepted as valid in perpetuity, ie, no links will break because of the transition
    • NAAN can be 1 or more betanumerics (no length limit mentioned)
    • ARK chars:    =   ~   *   +   @   _   $        %   -   .   /
         this removes #, adds ~
    • inflections: add ?info  (with ? and ?? reserved for future use, but undefined; ok to keep using them as you do for now)
    • For received ARKs, implementations must support a minimum length of 255 octets for the string composed of the Base Name plus Qualifier
