Subject: Re: [ubl-lcsc] Re: [ubl-ndrsc] UBL: question on CCT language component
I cannot find where it says they are indicator. Content??? di you mean Identifier. Content? In the data model i derived fro the tables in 8-1 and 8-2, you will see that both Language.Identifier and Language.Locale.Identifier are Identifiers and therefore have an Identifer. Content (ie xsd:token). This conundrum exposes the 'flat' structures we have built for CCTs and Rep. Terms , when they should have been more sophisticated. That is, we should have had things like... <Language> <Identifier> <Content> EN </Content> </Identifier> <LocaleIdentifier> <Content> US </Content> </LocaleIdentifier> </Language> where the schema reflects the true structures of the CCTs and not the table CRAWFORD, Mark wrote: >Anne, > >Language supplementary components are of indicator.
