RFC 7302              EIDR URN Namespace Definition            July 20141.  Introduction   This document defines the formal Uniform Resource Name (URN)   Namespace Identifier (NID) for EIDR Identifiers.   EIDR Identifiers are centrally registered, globally unique   identifiers for audiovisual works and their variants, primarily film   and television.  A unique set of metadata parameters describing the   associated work is bound to the EIDR Identifier at the time of   registration.   EIDR Identifiers are a special kind of DOI Names allocated by EIDR   Association specifically for audiovisual works.  The Digital Object   Identifier (DOI) system provides an infrastructure for persistent   unique identification of objects of any type and is specified in   [ISO26234].  A DOI name is the identifier that is permanently   assigned to an object.  The use of DOI Names ensures persistence,   global uniqueness, and an open resolution infrastructure.   As a DOI Name, an EIDR Identifier has two components: a prefix   assigned exclusively to EIDR Association by the DOI Registration   Authority and a suffix defined by EIDR Association.  Currently, EIDR   Identifiers use the prefix "10.5240", but additional prefixes might   be introduced in the future.   The following is an example of an EIDR Identifier in its canonical   representation:           10.5240/7791-8534-2C23-9030-8610-5   where "10.5240" is the prefix and "7791-8534-2C23-9030-8610-5" is the   suffix.  The canonical URN representation of the same EIDR Identifier   is:           urn:eidr:10.5240:7791-8534-2C23-9030-8610-5   Note that ":" is used as separator between prefix and suffix since   "/" is a URN reserved character.   [EIDR-OVERVIEW] and [EIDR-INTRO] provide additional background   information.Lemieux                       Informational                     [Page 2]

RFC 7302              EIDR URN Namespace Definition            July 20142.  Completed URN Namespace Definition Template   The namespace definition according to the template in [RFC3406] is as   follows:   Namespace ID:      eidr   Registration Information:      Version 1      2014-03-03   Declared registrant of the namespace:      Name:         Entertainment Identifier Registry Association      Address:         c/o Alliances Management         544 Hillside Road         Redwood City, CA 94062         USA      Contact:         URL:http://eidr.org/contact/         Email: info@eidr.org   Declaration of syntactic structure:      An EIDR Identifier is a special kind of DOI Name (see [ISO26234])      and, as such, consists of two components: a prefix denoted EIDR-      PREFIX and a suffix denoted EIDR-SUFFIX.  The URN representation      URN-EIDR of an EIDR Identifier conforms to the syntax (expressed      using [RFC5234]):           URN-EIDR = "urn:eidr:" EIDR-NSS           EIDR-NSS = EIDR-PREFIX ":" EIDR-SUFFIX           EIDR-PREFIX = 1*EIDR-CHARS           EIDR-SUFFIX = 1*EIDR-CHARS           EIDR-CHARS = ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_"Lemieux                       Informational                     [Page 3]

RFC 7302              EIDR URN Namespace Definition            July 2014      The only value of EIDR-PREFIX currently in use is "10.5240".      Additional prefix values conforming to the EIDR-PREFIX syntax      might be introduced by EIDR Association in the future.  In all      cases, each of these additional prefix values will be associated      with suffix values that conform to a subset of the EIDR-SUFFIX      syntax.  These additional prefixes and their corresponding      suffixes will be documented in future revisions to this      registration.      An implementation can process an EIDR-NSS with an unknown prefix      as an opaque string per the "Rules of Lexical Equivalence" below,      and resolve it as a generic DOI Name per the "Process for      identifier resolution" below.      When EIDR-PREFIX is equal to "10.5240", the syntax of EIDR-SUFFIX      is further constrained according to the to RP2079-SUFFIX syntax      specified in [SMPTERP2079]:           RP2079-SUFFIX = 5(4HEXDIG "-") CHECK           CHECK         = DIGIT / ALPHA      where CHECK is the Mod 37,36 check character as specified in      [ISO7064], computed over the 20 hexadecimal digits HEXDIG of      RP2079-SUFFIX.      EXAMPLE: urn:eidr:10.5240:7791-8534-2C23-9030-8610-5   Relevant ancillary documentation:      [ISO26234] specifies DOI Name syntax and registration.      [SMPTERP2079] specifies the syntax of the EIDR Identifier with the      prefix "10.5240".   Identifier uniqueness considerations:      An EIDR Identifier is a DOI Name.  The ISO 26324 Registration      Authority ensures that DOI Name uniqueness; therefore, the      URN-EIDR derived from an EIDR Identifier is guaranteed to be      unique and never reassigned.      Furthermore, an EIDR Identifier is associated with a single      URN-EIDR.Lemieux                       Informational                     [Page 4]

RFC 7302              EIDR URN Namespace Definition            July 2014   Identifier persistence considerations:      An EIDR Identifier is a DOI Name.  The ISO 26324 Registration      Authority ensures that a DOI Name remains valid indefinitely;      therefore, the URN-EIDR derived from an EIDR Identifier remains      valid indefinitely.   Process of identifier assignment:      EIDR Association registers each EIDR Identifier with the ISO 26324      Registration Authority.      Entities involved in the motion picture and television industry,      either directly in the production of content or in its      distribution and related services, are eligible to apply for      registrant status.  Registrants pay an annual membership fee that      depends on the size of the company.   Process for identifier resolution:      As a DOI Name, the resolution of the EIDR Identifier associated      with an EIDR-NSS is handled by the ISO 26324 Registration      Authority.      The ISO 26324 Registration Authority operates a web service that      allows the EIDR Identifier associated with an EIDR-NSS to be      resolved by issuing an HTTP GET request to the following URI (see      [RFC7231]):               "http://doi.org/" EIDR-PREFIX "/" EIDR-SUFFIX      If the EIDR Identifier exists, then an XML Schema instance      document (see [XMLSchema]) containing metadata associated with the      EIDR Identifier is returned; otherwise, the HTTP status code "404      Not Found" is returned.      EXAMPLE:http://doi.org/10.5240/7791-8534-2C23-9030-8610-5      NOTE: At the time of this writing, this service of the ISO 26324      Registration Authority is not available over TLS, and hence the      confidentiality of queries is not protected.      EIDR Association operates additional services specifically      tailored to EIDR users (see [EIDR-SERVICES]).  These services      include additional features, e.g., confidential lookup using TLS      and the ability to register EIDR Identifiers.Lemieux                       Informational                     [Page 5]

RFC 7302              EIDR URN Namespace Definition            July 2014   Rules for Lexical Equivalence:      Lexical equivalence of EIDR-URN is defined by case-insensitive      string match.   Conformance with URN Syntax:      As specified above, the syntax of EIDR-URN is a subset of the URN      syntax specified in [RFC2141].   Validation mechanism:      The validity of an EIDR-NSS can only be guaranteed by completing      the resolution process.      For EIDR-NSS with an EIDR-PREFIX equal to "10.5240", the CHECK      value can be used for integrity checking, as specified above.   Scope:      EIDR Identifiers are centrally registered, globally unique      identifiers for use with audiovisual works worldwide.3.  Namespace Considerations   EIDR Identifiers are intended for use in Internet applications, where   URNs are routinely used to identify audiovisual resources.  There is   no direct mapping from EIDR Identifiers to existing URN namespaces.4.  Community Considerations   The primary registrants of EIDR Identifiers are producers and   distributors of audiovisual works, metadata aggregators, and   audiovisual archives.  Any bona fide member of the ecosystem can   become an EIDR member and register any work.  EIDR Identifiers can be   used by anyone to unambiguously identify an audiovisual asset and   retrieve underlying metadata.  The primary benefits of their use are   associated with works in wide distribution, management of long or   complex distribution chains, and aggregation of information from   multiple sources.5.  IANA Considerations   IANA has registered the Formal URN Namespace 'eidr' in the "Uniform   Resource Names (URN) Namespaces" registry, using the registration   template inSection 2 of this document.Lemieux                       Informational                     [Page 6]

RFC 7302              EIDR URN Namespace Definition            July 20146.  Security Considerations   This document specifies the syntax of the EIDR-URN namespace and   makes no security representations.  Furthermore, the details of   assignment and resolution processes are defined external to this   document by EIDR Association and the ISO 26324 Registration   Authority, and thus are outside the scope of this document.  Note,   however, that failure to conform to the syntactic and lexical   equivalence rules in this specification when using an EIDR Identifier   as a criteria for accessing restricted resources can result in   granting unauthorized access to these resources.7.
