EDXL-RIM Common Types template request
All,

 Given the feedback from the TC Admin, I am considering submitting a revised template request. Before proceeding, I would like your input on the points below.

 1) Work Product
Title: "Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL)

Reference Information Model (RIM): Common Types, v1.0"
 Reason for change: expanded abbreviations and hyphen elimination from previous "EDXL RIM - Common Types".

 2) Work Product Abbreviation (WPA): considering alternatives

a) "EDXL-RIM-CT-v1.0"

b) "EDXL-CT-v1.0"
 or using "_" for version separation

c) "EDXL-RIM-CT_v1.0"

d) "EDXL-CT_v1.0"
 or lower case counterparts

e) "edxl-rim-ct-v1.0"

f) "edxl-ct-v1.0"

g) "edxl-rim-ct_v1.0"

h) "edxl-ct_v1.0"

i) other?
 Note that WPA determines the file name of the work products. So far, we have not been consistent in the EM-TC, using upper case, lower case or even mixed forms (e.g. emergency_edxl_have-1.0, EDXL-RM-SPEC-V1.0, EDXL-DE_Spec_v1.0, cap-v1.1-ipaws-profile-v1.0). OASIS does not impose any particular format, but indicates that there is a tendency towards lower case notations for file names, and I personally believe that it would be nice to have a consistent notation within the TC.

 3) Namespaces

- Document URI:

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/emergency/edxl/rim/ct  or other variants derived from WPA.

- xml namespace:

urn:oasis:names:tc:emergency:edxl:rim:ct or other variants derived from WPA.

 Thanks for your feedback,
 Werner
