Re: [cti-cybox] Should CyboX events, actions and type enumerations live within the object that uses them?

[John Anderson <janderson@soltra.com>]

It would help me to see your idea expressed in Python, Terry. How would this make coding more joyful?

Yo
(Yes and No)

No, because some Vocabularies enumerations are applicable/usable in
many places, or for many objects.
(Think reuse and maintenance)
e.g. https://cyboxproject.github.io/documentation/object-relationships/
Many Actions could be triggered by different Actors (User, file,
Process, Thread, ...)

Yes (maybe, potentially) for some objects (to make implementation
simpler), we could agree on that, for -some- objects. (ref.
enumeration of hashes type)
