Here is another paper which may add to the discussion on identifiers. It
attempts to look at what can be done with learning objects and how this
will be helped or hindered depending on how identifiers are used. It is
a discussion paper and in several papers it aims simply to raise issues.
Please send comments to this mailing list or come to the SIG meeting.
