				<h3>Notes :</h3>
				<p>
					The idea is to find a way to mark any object with the minimum information that could return a description of the object, its author(s) and the license associated.
					Since there might not be enough room for a lot of information (depending on the size and form of the object), the use of a serial number seemed the easiest choice.
					As an examble, every book has an ISBN number which can help find more information about it from the online databases.
					Same goes for electronic chips and components, their serial number is written on them which helps recover info about their use, constructor, etc.
					The problem with ISBN is that it's a centralized system. The problem with chip numbering systems is that there is a different conention for each manufacturer.
					By using SHA-1 algorithm and a minimum of required formatted information, we can have a decentralized system of generating unique identifyers for any object.
				</p>
				<h3>ISON specification 0.1 alpha:</h3>
				<p>
					4 required data fields:
					<ol>
						<li>Full name of the object</li>
						<li>Release date (ISO 8601)</li>
						<li>Full name(s) of the author(s) (In case of multiple authors, each name will be comma separated)</li>
						<li>Full name of the license used</li>
					</ol>
					Each field is concatenated into one line, tab separated and in that specific order.<br>
					The ISON is the SHA-1 of this resulting line.
