Re: SV: [codelist] a codelist

["Anthony B. Coates (Miley Watts)" <abcoates@mileywatts.com>]

The examples I was thinking of using from UBL and/or FpML are examples of  
simple code lists in genericode format.  In terms of examples that are  
used within the text of the spec to demonstrate how genericode "looks" as  
angle brackets, it probably makes sense to try and use the simplest  
examples where possible.

That said, I think the document needs one or two examples of simple code  
lists in genericode format, but would also benefit from at least one more  
complex example, e.g. a code list with multiple keys, a code list that  
uses and external column set, a code list with many metadata columns,  
perhaps a code list with a complex (XML) valued column.  I'm sure there  
are other "complex" things that an example could show as well.  I don't  
expect examples to show everything, but it would be good to give some  
demonstration that genericode does more than just the simplest and most  
obvious stuff.

So, if anyone wants to contribute a more complex example, it wouldn't need  
to be available right now for use in the text, but would be great in an  
appendix as an example.

Cheers, Tony.
