/ Alex Milowski <alex@milowski.org> was heard to say:
| Based on what I've heard so far, here is the most inclusive proposal:
|
| * We add an option called "scheme" that defaults to "integer". All other
| values are implementation defined. A minimally conforming implementation
| must support "integer".
[...]
| * For the "integer" scheme, numbering starts at 1 and increases by one
| every element regardless of whether the attribute is set on the element.
|
| * There is no uniqueness constraint.
|
| * We add an option called "replace" that takes a boolean value. A true
| value means the attribute value is replaced if the attribute already
| exists on the element. The default value is "false".
|
| I actually really like Murray's suggestion of the "scheme" option because that
| lets me add a "UUID" scheme and generate unique labels across documents. I'd
| be quite happy if we added a "UUID" scheme as an optional scheme in our
| specification.
That works for me, any objections?
Be seeing you,
norm
