RE: [wss] Namespace issue - proposal

Regarding the stable url, it might make sense to include an additional 
item in the path such as a date. 

 

In 
addition, it is worth mentioning that issue was also discussed in the DSS group, 
and a 

a 
proposal was made  for a namespace convention:  scheme/tc/identifier/version/part/object/stage/revision

 

It 
isn't clear from the minutes which convention was discussed on the last 
call.

  issue - proposal

Here is 
  the proposal from OASIS as to how we handle our namespace issue - comments 
  from the TC ? 

I think this is 
  probably the best we will be able to do and this soounds like the same type of 
  scheme thta Jeff and Ron were describing on our call today.

Kelvin:

I can't seem to find it either, but here's the brief 
  description. Until 
OASIS can build a document management system that 
  includes the 
functionality, we will provide to TCs who need a persistent 
  URL the 
following:

Upon request from the TC chair or editor, the 
  OASIS webmaster will 
create a URL in the form 
  www.docs.oasis-open.org/<tcname>/<docname> and 
build a 
  redirect so that the URL points to a document residing in the 
Kavi 
  repository. When the document in the repository is updated the TC 
chair or 
  editor should inform the webmaster so that the redirect can be 
updated to 
  point to the later document.

Note that the <docname> above should 
  conform to the OASIS file naming 
scheme, and should be usable for the 
  entire lifetime of the doc, from 
early drafts through approval as an OASIS 
  Standard.

Because this will be a manual process we don't want to offer 
  to all TCs 
for all documents but only those TCs such as WSS that have a 
  specific 
need for this.
