- torchous 9y agoYes, but it's not globally recognizable. that's why doi's are standardized through ISO https://www.doi.org/ https://www.doi.org/ Internally you could implement a DOI->HASH mapping, but a quilt hash isn't going to help in the reference list of a paper (if you're lucky you can copy'n'paste it. How do you know where to go? What happens if your package organization changes internally and so forth.
- Steeeve 9y agoThis is more than adequate. DOIs are simply redirects. It's up to the data owner to point the DOI at whatever resource contains the data. If a DOI is registered, it can be pointed to the quilt URL. You can take it a step further and either integrate with a DOI provider or become one yourself and integrate the registration process within your api or create command line tools.
