Term Name

ods:type

Digital Object Name

all of them

Feedback

this is a really generic term name for a really specific purpose. We feel it would be better to rename the element to ods:fdoType .

In the definition the acronym FDO needs to be extended, as it might not be clear to all users what this refers to, especially since it is not mentioned anywhere else on the page. DOI as an acronym is ok, as this can be assumed to be generally known by the people reading such documentations.

Also it would help to have a working example of a DOI to better illustrate, what this element is used for, e.g. https://doi.org/21.T11148/894b1e6cad57e921764e .

Thanks for the suggestion, renaming this property to ods:fdoType
