It is persistent and immutable across all instantiations of the - Web Publication. It SHOULD be an IRI (and therefore also a locator). If not an IRI, it MUST be - possible to make a 1-to-1 mapping of the canonical identifier to a locator. A cononical identifier - that is an IRI, or a locator mapped from a canonical identifier, can be referred to as an Identifying - IRI. While the canonical identifier itself is persistent, its mapping to an IRI MAY be dynamic.
A Web Publication canonical identifier is assigned to a Web Publication by the publisher. + It SHOULD be a dereferenceable IRI and the Web Publication Address. If not, it MUST be possible to + make a 1-to-1 mapping to the Web Publication Address. If a dereferenceable IRI it MAY be used as the + value of the href attribute of a canonical link element (i.e., a link element with a + rel='canonical' attribute).
