CWM12 — Identify precise CWM definition to which interchange doc. conforms

  • Key: CWM12-72
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4403
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Thematix Partners LLC ( Dr. Doug Tolbert)
  • Summary:

    Provide in the body of a CWM interchange document, a means for
    identifying the precise CWM definition to which the interchange document
    conforms. Something similar to the way the XML documents identify the URI
    of the XML definition they conform to would do nicely. Such a mechanism in
    effect creates a name space within which the contents of the CWM interchange
    document can be evaluated. Useful side effects of having such a namespace
    include: (1) the definition of CWM extension packages without the present
    need that they be accompanied by the CWM definition itself, (2) a framework
    in which Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) can be defined for each CWM
    object. Several requests for CWM UUIDs have already been received
    informally.
