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

Mon Oct 21 10:00:49 EDT 2013

hi Shiraz,
I was going to mention this quickly at tomorrows WG meeting in the AOB. I prefer GLUE not GLUE2.  I think versioning info should be restricted to the XSD namespace and not used to define element names. For example, suppose in the future we introduce some extensions or new elements and call this 'GLUE2.1' or 'GLUE2.2' etc, existing XPath expressions that define the root element name would need to be re-written, e.g.
'/GLUE2/ComputingService/ID'

I've also made a few grammar changes to my local version and was aiming to upload this and submit for final call after the wg meeting.
thanks
david

Hi,

I have replaced the root element "Entities" with "GLUE2" in the xml rendering document[1]. The changes in the document have been tracked, so will be finalized once approved within the wg. Should you find any errors/typos, please let me or JP know.

Best regards,
Shiraz and JP

Hi,

I tend to agree that "Glue2" or "GLUE2" is a more consistent root element name than the other two. Regardless of being (slightly) descriptive, the name also reflects the current specification version.

In spite of the fact that the "Glue" (as a root element) is being used within the LDAP rendering, we should not carry along with its legacies while modifying other spec. renderings.

Hope it won't be unfair to change my vote (certainly for the last time) for "GLUE2" :)

If there are no real objections, can we close the issue and proceed with the publication process.

Best regards,
Shiraz

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

Subject: Change Doc Root element name

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
