Subject: Re: [sca-j] File names for our specs


I agree with you Anish. I prefer as much consistency as we can get given
we're so close to the end with some of these docs.  The ones in the
pipeline are a different matter entirely and will follow the new
guidelines.

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

It certainly makes a lot of sense not the change the 'latest version'
filename. Given that the established 'latest version' filenames have
'spec' in them and do not have the 'v', I'm inclined to just do the
s/cd/csd/, but will put that question to the TC.

We do have specs that are in the pipeline that have never been published
before. We'll certainly follow the new guidelines for those.

Thanks.
