In September the ARK Alliance (arks.org) will convert its documentation practices to align with modern form ARKs, the most visible difference being removal of the slash ('/') at the end of "ark:/". This is a non-breaking change -- two ARKs that differ only in form are considered equivalent in perpetuity.
