[glue-wg] FW: Change Doc Root element name in GLUE2 XML rendering

The GFD.147 document uses 'GLUE' instead of 'Glue'. The XML element names follow the CamelCase of the attribute names in GFD.147, so you could argue that we should follow the capitalization of glue, also.

And as Florido mentions, we could use 'GLUE2' to be more precise.

I think 'GLUE2' would be my favorite of those three options (since that is how I think of our effort). Using something more descriptive than 'Entities' as the root element makes sense to me.

Hi David,

For consistency and readability's sake, I would vote for "Glue" as the main root element. This can be seen as one of the changes needed by the potential glue compliant information system/application(s) that aims to adopt the latest xml flat rendering. Thus, better to change it now than later.

With that, however, one more proponent has been added :)

Has any deadline been fixed to reach the final agreement on this issue?

Best regards,
Shiraz

Hi all,
Are there any more comments/votes regarding the proposed change of the Document root element name from '<Entities>' to '<Glue>' (see original message copied below)?  So far, 2 votes for (DM, JP) and 1 vote against (Florido).

Can we get this resolved so we can move to the last step in the OGF doc process for the Glue2 xml rendering (i.e. final call)

Cheers,
David

hi all,
I have one suggestion for a small change for the glue2 XML rendering.
Since the Ldap rendering defines 'glue' as the root attribute in an RDN string, similarly we could consider changing the Document Root element from '<Entities>' to '<Glue>'. This is a v.minor change and would be more consistent with the ldap rendering.

What do you think?
David
