Subject: Re: [code] First code list teleconference tomorrow 2003-08-14 11:00EDT/8:00PDT/15:00Z
Thanks to Ken for pulling this together. Unfortunately, I'll only be able to participate in the first hour of the meeting. Below are some examples intended to show the structural reqirements for application info related to code lists. This is mostly imaginary -- I just wanted to hint at some of the problems that will need to be solved in putting together the info for each list. I think it's clear from this that each code list will present a separate problem for the list maintainer. And I must say that the idea of putting the application-specific stuff in appinfo is making more and more sense to me. Jon ################################################################## (IMAGINARY) CODE LIST EXAMPLES ================================================================== EXAMPLE 1. A COUNTRY CODE Enumeration value: AD Documentation for the human reader Definition in the reference language (English): Principality of Andorra Definition in another language (French): Principauté d'Andorre Application data Short name in the code list reference locale (Canada): Andorra Short name in another locale (France): Andorre ================================================================== EXAMPLE 2. AN AIRPORT CODE Enumeration value: YUL Documentation for the human reader Definition in the reference language (English): Montreal Dorval Airport Definition in another language (French): [french version goes here] Application data Locale = Ontario Uppercase short description: MONTREAL Mixed case short description: Montreal Locale = Quebec Uppercase short description: MONTRÉAL Mixed case short description: Montréal Locale = France Uppercase short description: MONTREAL Mixed case short description: Montréal ================================================================== EXAMPLE 3. A CURRENCY CODE Enumeration value: CAD Documentation for the human reader [suitable definitions are to be imagined here] Application data Locale = Ontario Short description: Canadian Dollar Currency symbol: $ Symbol position: before Locale = Quebec Short description: Dollar Canadien Currency symbol: $ Symbol position: after
