Subject: Request for comments on the symbolic link proposal


The OASIS CMIS TC has been discussing a proposal for an optional extension to CMIS 1.1 that would add a symbolic link feature.  While the existing multi-filing feature of CMIS can support some of the use cases for symbolic links, there are other use cases that cannot be supported with multi-filing.  These include multi-filing of file folders, allowing one to file objects other than documents and folders in a folder, and filing a latest accessible state identifier.

The full proposal is available at www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/54742/cmis-symbolic-link.docx

The question now before the CMIS TC is whether these use cases are sufficiently useful to merit adding an optional extension to CMIS.  To help answer this question, we are seeking input from the members of the CMIS community.

Any opinions about this issue are appreciated.  Please your comments to cmis-comment@lists.oasis-open.org.
