http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=4675 ------- Comment #28 from kirk.wilson@ca.com 2008-01-10 21:08 ------- The names "Minimal Conformance"/"Full Conformance" seem to be unnecessarily evaluative and, in the case of the former, may convey undesirable connotations ("I just did enough to get by to call myself conformant."). More objective names should be selected that describe what is going on in these types of conformance. The current names might also imply a scale of conformance from minimal to full with possible inbetween levels. For "Minimal Conformance" I would suggest "Specification Conformance" or just "Conformance". For "Full Conformance", we might be use "Reference Conformance" or "URI Conformance." The difference between just "Conformance" and "Reference/URI Conformance" would then also convey the idea that "Reference Conformance" is an extension of (standard) conformance related to reference schemes.Received on Thursday, 10 January 2008 21:08:45 GMT
