Tom Rutt commented on CAMP-121:
-------------------------------

Triage Issue 121:

YAML uses the term "sequence" .  

TC should discuss need to clarify the use of the typename[] notation and the ussage of the term "array" in the descriptions , with respect to things that are to be serialized as a YAML sequence.

> 4.3.3.3 requirements currently reads in part: 
> ***** 
> This array specifies the ways in which the artifact described by this Artifact Specification engages with the services provided by the platform. 
> ***** 
> What type of array is intended by "This array...?" 
> Is it a YAML sequence (which is ordered)? or it is closer to a mapping (unordered key/value pairs)? 
> Reasoning that even unordered pairs do have an order of appearance in a data stream, the prohibition against treating order of the array as significant doesn't exclude either of those possibilities.
