ODM11 — Annex D has a number of issues and should be removed

Open Closed All

  • Summary:

    Annex D, "Extending the ODM", describes methods for extending the metamodels defined in the specification. The metamodels themselves represent the abstract syntax of the languages they support, and rather than extending them, specification users tend to develop ontologies that use them.

    The RTF cannot identify a single user for this informative annex, which we believe is no longer relevant. We have no evidence that anyone has ever used this section of the specification over the last 6 years, and believe that we should not be advocating its approach. The annex should be removed from the specification.
