Subject: Error in Introduction and Basic Requirements?
Greetings, Working away on a proposal for the PSI spec (won't finish today, perhaps tomorrow) and found the following: Section 2.5.2 Publishers in the loop end of first paragraph: "At that point, applications and users will be provided with published subjects, published subject indicators (PSIs) and published subject identifiers (PSIDs)." I would prefer to distinguish between "published subject indicators" and "published subject identifiers" but my understanding was that the committee wanted both to be identified as PSIs. Note that PSID is also used in section 3. Requirements and Recommendations for PSIs. Both the requirements and recommendations avoid the ambiguity by using the terms Published Subject Identifier and Published Subject Indicator. Should I just avoid PSI and simply say "Published Subject," "Published Subject Identifier," and "Published Subject Indicator" for the proposal, that is until we fix the "Introduction and Basic Requirements?" I think that would be the better course since that would leave no ambiguity in the language of the proposal. (Well, from that source anyway, sure other ambiguity and errors will be present.) Hope everyone is having a great day!
