Matthew,
I completely agree with you, and would be interested to hear from
this group what they believe are authoritative URIs for common data types
such as: (01)
Float (or Real)
Integer
Boolean
String (02)
And then, thoughts on the same for measured quantities such as: (03)
AbsoluteDateTime
Duration
(I'll stop here for now) (04)

Dear Doug, (08)
I think this is an important point. (09)

MW: One of the things I try to promote is the idea of an authoritative
source, so not only are there relatively few URIs for the same thing, but
there is a natural preference for which one to use. So to cross threads, if
we are looking for what URI to use to identify Ferrari 458 Italia, the one
Ferrari uses should be preferred, because they are clearly the authoritative
source. (011)
MW: This has the corollary that authoritative sources have the
responsibility to create URIs for the things they are responsible for. (012)
