Hi Peter, et. al. (01)
sorry I missed the call.. (02)
To complement.. ISO 19135:2005 defines "specifies procedures to be
followed in establishing, maintaining and publishing registers of
unique, unambiguous and permanent identifier" It contains definitions,
such as: (03)
registration:
assignment of a permanent, unique, and unambiguous identifier to an item (04)
register:
set of files containing identifiers assigned to items with
descriptions of the associated items (05)
registry:
information system on which a register is maintained (06)
register owner:
organization that establishes a register (07)
register manager:
organization to which management of a register has been delegated by
the register owner
.. (08)
One of the issues is identifying the item being register:
1) A resource
2) A triple
3) A graph
4) An ontology
5) ??? (09)
So, "An ontology repository is a facility where ontologies and relate
information artifacts can be stored, retrieved and managed.", in ISO
words will be: (010)
An ontology repository is an ontology registry or information system
on which a register of ontologies is maintained. (011)
