The Handle System is the first piece of a long-term digital object architecture. In January 2010 CNRI released its general-purpose Digital Object Repository software, which comprises the second major component of this architecture. More information about the release, including protocol specification, source code and ready-to-use system, clients and utilities, is available. The third and final piece, the Digital Object Registry, will be released shortly.
The continued use and evolution of the Handle System is in no way dependent on these other components, but those already using Handles may find them useful in small or large ways and both are, or soon will be, freely available under an open source style license.

Famous quotes containing the word related:
“Perhaps it is nothingness which is real and our dream which is non-existent, but then we feel think that these musical phrases, and the notions related to the dream, are nothing too. We will die, but our hostages are the divine captives who will follow our chance. And death with them is somewhat less bitter, less inglorious, perhaps less probable.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
