Marty,
last week the CCTS update project team has
apparently accepted my comments to remove the different handling of
supplementary components compared with content components - but this will take
time to become published. Thus the issue is still open for the current
life.
Michael
Michael,
If I understand you correctly this is just the point. Need to have fixed
supplementary components that can be optionally included in elements of type 1
and type 2 usage of codes.
Unless, you create your own code list version in which case the
supplementary components have to reference your organization and version info
etc...

Does this cause problems for specialized
data types and your code list concepts?
Michael
All,
It seems to me that the most important purpose of the supplementary
components of code lists and other elements is for version control and
traceability. So I would expect that anytime a code list is used, all of
its supplementary components must be potentially present.
The use of "fixed" values in the schemas allow for the values of the
supplementary components to be unambiguous as referenced by the schema, or
at the option of the user, as included in the instance file. In either
case, schema guarantees that these values are correct.
Also, why is it necessary to rename the version ID from a standard
list to match the element name? Why not just include the attribute
optionally by reference from the standard (or substitution) schema?

the problem is that
whatever we try and do we cannot stiil ensure that we have enough
attributes to unambiguously identify the code list used. so we
can do what you suggest but still not solve the business
requirement.
unfortunately code lists have no unique
identification key. even the name and the version ID is not enough.
some code lists (such as ISO currency codes) have alternate
representations (such as numeric as well as alphabetic codes).
where do we specify that? simply knowing it is ISO 4217
version 0.3 (or "2001") is not sufficent to say what are legitimate
values.
what is more there are no formal notations for
specifying code list IDs or versions IDs. what if we have
amountCurrencyCodeListVersionID="0.3" and
amountCurrencyCodeListVersionID="v0.3" and
amountCurrencyCodeListVersionID="2001" - are these
equivalent?
creating a specialized (or what we now call
"qualified") data type for currency codes is an option but i suspect
it needs more than just one other attribute.
in the meantime
we dont want this to hold up generating the first set of
schemas.
Can i suggest we revisit this (yet again!) when we
have some sample schemas and instances to talk to.
Note that
we will be still having a UBL QualifiedDataTypes model and schema
module (for the code lists) so technically we should be able to
introduce this later without too much impact.
