---++  Some Strawman Amendments to the Identifier WD

   * [[IdAmendPtA][Part A.]] 
   * Part B.
   * [[IdAmendPtC][Part C.]] 
   * [[IdAmendPtD][Part D.]] 

---+ Part B.  Unregistered Resource IDs

A naming authority may create a resource identifier and associate with a resource without actually registering it.  In this case, the naming authority is ultimately responsible for ensuring the uniqueness of the identifier.  

Change:  "ivo://" and "&lt;vr:Identifier&gt;" to indicate that they do not guarantee existence of registered description; however, it does mean that the authority ID is owned by a registered organization and that it can be given to a registry for resolving.
