HowTo information about ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID -> a PID for people)

 * ORCID FAQ
 * ORDID introduction video
 * HOWTO: Register an ORCID (Video tutorial)
 * How to set up an ORCID account for credit propagation (e.g. Version-DOI of OSGeo project software releases will automagically appear in the "works" section of the associated ORCID accounts)
