Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (OSLCCORE-121) Allow alternative skew resolution algorithms


    [ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OSLCCORE-121?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=69270#comment-69270 ] 

Nick Crossley commented on OSLCCORE-121:
----------------------------------------

I have added text in the section on version resolution to require consistency from a provider. Jim, please review to see that meets your first point.

As for finding the alternatives, while there is no built-in operation for this, I do not believe one is needed. A user can at any time read the selection resources in a GC hierarchy and find which concept resources have multiple versions and where.

re avoiding skew - I do expect day-to-day practitioners to operate in unskewed environments most of the time, but any realistic representation of sufficiently large or complex systems must allow for the fact that skew does happen.

> In the current draft, a Config Mgmt server MUST provide a version resolution process using a first match in a depth-first search starting at the top of the configuration context, and MAY provide a way to find all matches.
> Neither of these two algorithms necessarily meets client needs. No implementations exist for the All Matches approach.
> The specification is overly precise, and its precision is not useful in this case.
