RE: [ubl-dev] Re: Code List Value Validation

["David RR Webber \(XML\)" <david@drrw.info>]

Ken, 

Ok - understood - I'll post some suggestions and see what people make of
them.  I'm not seeing anything  catastrophic here - mostly imcremental
enhancements! 

I saw your note that the parsing in xslt was slow - and you had to
switch to SAX/python - so I thought I'd suggest some cosmetic changes
that have worked before for me to improve speed - and have side benefit
of improving the human side - this is mostly just re-jiggering - very
easy to do with an xslt globally. 

Also - we'd had a thread on the possibly applicability of registry - so
wanted to make sure if we need to add a tag or two to support use of
registry - we explore that now - before this train is getting too far
down the rails and then someone says - why did you not consider that? 

Cheers, DW

REFACTOR?  Sorry, David ... genericode files are under Tony's purview 
... I would suggest you indicate to Tony what your needs are and have 
him suggest ways genericode files can address the needs.

Again, I'm lost David ... where were my concerns with speed, and 
where are there eyeball problems with what XML you are speaking 
of?  This work is the considered result of some effort ... not the 
arbitrary throwing together of markup.

I'm interested to see what you'll be posting.

I note this thread has been happening on both XML-Dev and UBL-Dev, 
and while the discussion of genericode files is appropriate for both 
(Tony's work is used in many places other than UBL ... yet another 
reason why, David, one cannot just make arbitrary changes to 
genericode ... it is the result of a lot of work on Tony's part with 
many parties), when this becomes a pure UBL discussion, it should 
probably only happen on UBL-Dev.

Sorry, David ... I'm lost in what you say ... I don't have any input 
to the registry storage issue with my methodology.  I don't see how 
it relates.  I'm dealing with standalone validation methodologies.
