Subject: [wsdm][UPlat] Versioning
Here is my first cut on Versioning: * Versioning: - Definition(s): Versions: A sequence of copies of (Functional and Manageability) Webservices incorporating new modifications. Each version is identified by a number, following a certain specified format signifying the major version number and the release number. Typically an increment in the major version signifies a substantial increase in the function of the Webservice or a partial or total re-implementation. Whereas the release number increases each time the Webservice is changed in any way and re-released. Versioning information must also contain change description that describes what has changed in a revision compared to the previous one. - Management Need(s): 1. Version numbers are useful so that the manager can know if the manageable Webservice interfaces have changed (bugs have been fixed or new functions added) since she obtained her copy. She could also learn whether a bug report relates to the current version. 2. A manager of manageable resources must have the ability to query the available endpoints' revisions along with the corresponding change descriptions such that the manager can discern the most appropriate and compatible interface of a particular manageability function that her management client can use.
