Re: [community-group] Proposal: JSON Schema $ref for aliases (breaking change) (#259)

@brettdorrans Thanks for your feedback! I think we are aiming at the same things overall.

> There are established, well-designed specifications for describing and linking JSON documents - JSON Schema being one we appear to be re-implementing indirectly here. They already define things like $ref, syntax, remote references etc.

This is quite literally a proposal to align DTCG spec around exactly what you specified—existing standards and prior art. This quite literally adopting part of JSON Schema. Would you say you are in favor of this proposal to the spec? Or are you saying “we should have started here in the first place?”
