Title: Re: [ubl] Namespace versioning
Tony,
I am not talking about doing away with
minor versions for the schema, only minor versioning of the namespaces. A
namespace is nothing more than the first part of a qualified name for elements
and attributes - or if you like an artificial container of names that are unique
within that container. It is not, and in my opinion should not, be a
substitution for schema location. Our namespace string and schema location
string are the same out of convenience and standardization - not because they
imply the same thing.

versioning
Mark, what mechanism would you use for identifying the minor
version of
the Schema that an instance is valid for?
Non-identification of minor
versions is fine for systems that are
always and instantaneously updated
to handle the latest minor version
of the Schema, but all other systems
need to be able to identify when
they have been sent an instance which
corresponds to a new minor
version that the system doesn't yet handle.
Cheers, Tony.
