The TMDM should be a legend from the TMRM perspective. To describe a
legend, one needs terms - and this is IMHO exactly what these subject
identifiers are about.

I first thought about a redirect, too. But then I thought: If we just
redirect, nobody will know the reason, i.e. nobody will know the
status of the old PSI.
As a consequence, that would mean that all PSIs on this page would
always have the status "stable" or be forwarded to their stable
successor. In this case, we could just leave out the verbal status and
describe the status using the HTTP code. Or the publishing date as
last modified header?  :-)
I agree that it should not be listed on
http://psi.topicmaps.org/iso13250/model/ - but this would have needed
another change in the generator logic I was too lazy to do yet.

Best regards,
Benjamin
