The readme says
Product Identifiers. should be a GS1 GTIN (Global Trade Item Number - presented as a URI (eg urn:epc:sgtin:0614141.107346.2017). Ideally all GTIN should also be registered as a GS1 digital link so that further product information is easily discoverable.
GS1 product identifiers have pretty much dominated the goods identification problem in supply chains. There seems little point in allowing the use of other schemes. Also now that GS1 has started early trials of the digital link protocol, GTINs can now also be resolvable to URLs that return further product info.
This thread aims to provoke discussion about product identifiers
