It would be nice if coilink.org explained a bit more about COIs, such as how they are different than / related to DOIs, ARKs, etc.

PUBMED is down. This is disaster !!
We do not have the system and organization to replace it. (EuroPMC is great but not a replacement)
It is crystal clear that we cannot depend on critical systems provided by a single provider.
European reaction has to include science and science infrastructures.
