Possibly change URI of some FamilySearch EXID.TYPEs

[tychonievich]

Copied from FamilySearch/GEDCOM#567

Standard recommends to have a EXID.TYPE paylod which by appending the EXID payload the full url to find the webpage in the refrenced extrenal system. I wonder why this is not done in the examples for FAmily Search systems, like the place system. In the defining exid-types.json we find:
https://gedcom.io/exid-type/FamilySearch-PlaceId

This cannot be expanded to an valid url. It should be:
https://www.familysearch.org/research/places/?focusedId=

Discussion in GEDCOM Steering Committee 7 JAN 2025:

• Will find out if FamilySearch can create stable ARK URLs for place records (both place-sets and place instance)

@lynchrs3 any update?

The GEDCOM file format can express URIs without needing any new extensions or changes to the file format. To store a persistent place ID or place set ID, we need to be able to express it as a persistent URI. Hence the request for ARK URIs for place id and place set id.
