Subject: Re: [chairs] Oasis document identifiers - conclusion?
The second suggested format [TC-Phase-StandardName-Version]makes sense because it goes from the general to the specific. You can solve the classic database sorting problem by have multiple tags or fields in a catalog database. I had circulated a schematic and a list of suggested fields prior to the Kavi meeting, but was unable to attend. Does Kavi have any pre-existing workable solution to offer? Are they on this list? Are there some folks with Information Science or Wired Librarian skill who should be involved with this discussion?. A file name, however elegantly framed, has not been not enough to satisfy the queries we have gotten in LegalXML. This is particularly true of queries by outsider who have trouble figuring out what we are doing. We also have a lot of resources beside formal documents we should share with each other. Having a catalog database that can dynamically generate look-up table and other user aids on various OASIS and committee web pages will allow reports that can be specific to a sub-committee, to multiple sub-committees or cut across committees, such as all drafts and final documents affecting eCommerce or security. Without a database, we need to post multiple items to various parts of the site, and then keep them synchronized as new drafts appear and become final. My 2 cents - based on 30 years of building document retrieval database for litigation support.

Eve and fellow Chairs, I like and support the second suggestion [TC-Phase-StandardName-Version], and I agree that it is worth designating a Committee Specification [cs] differently from a draft or an Oasis Standard [os] because under OASIS rules, a Committee Specification is a special and recognized official plateau and in many cases constitutes the final phase of formalization.

As far as I know these files will never be in the same area, but general-to-specific is pretty much my reasoning for preferring the latter... Does anyone *disagree* with the second style shown below?

The latter makes the most sense.Imaginesearching long lists of TC docs from many TCs.
