RE: [obix] Obix 1.1 and Interoperation and Conformance

As far as I can tell, it is not technically out of 
conformance.  But I think it certainly is information that should be 
included if it's there.  If you have metadata, you should include it.  
I'm not sure exactly how you specify that in the contract, but it's easy enough 
to say it in the text.

Does 
this mean the current implementation as per the link is out of conformance, or 
should be out of conformance….

 

Indelicate 
way to answer the question, I know…

In the case of units for history, 
that is pretty straight forward - either the HistoryRecord or its prototype 
should specify a unit facet (assuming the system in question has one 
configured).

Regarding any areas of the spec where things are too fuzzy, 
I completely agree.  Lets make sure we try and get that stuff on the 
table.

My mind went to this because of the following link I saw this

Display Measuring Unit in History OBIX
I am using OBIX to view a History The 
      return is something as below I am wondering how I could tell the unit is

This is another simple item to address 
      that we should…
