I'm okay with this as long as the text about resource has some "such as"s that includes a Registry.

In the most recent (general) Description diagram (sent out in an email 10/16), Resource has a Description and Identifiers are a component of Description.
Which is our preference?
I'm thinking of something like the following diagram
?
where Resource has both a Description and an Identifier, the Description of a Resource has a reference to that Identifier (so you unambiguously know what is being described), and Description being a subclass of Resource thus has its own Identifier. (Ignore the ' on Resource and Identifier.)
Note, a version of this also needs to show up as an artifact diagram.
Your vote?
