Eld: Sorry if I did not express myself clear, - I know it is not the same, - my point is more that a standard is best placed under IETF rather than being an ISO standard or some organization that are not attached to a standard organization.

Eld: The uniqueness is ensured by the required archiving information: the archive, the archiving time (with as much granularity as possible) and the archived URL. Since no archive will archive the same harvested URL at exactly the same time, this information will uniquely identify the resource. Another way to see it is that archives are responsible for preserving the fundamental archiving metadata with the data: the time of archiving and what is archived. No archive would omit any of these informations, and if they did, it would be one of the cases where you cannot use PWIDs for the data.  You could say that the archive is issuing PWIDs when they archive a URL.

There was a request for a URN registration in December 2017.  That is not the same as a standard obtained within the IETF.

One of the comments from Mr Thompson was about the following: "The PWID URNs do not have to be assigned by an authority, as they are based on the information created at the time of archiving".  There is usually an entity managing a namespace on behalf of its community.  It is not clear who will ensure uniqueness of identifiers if there isn't any authority to makes the decisions.
